Join artist and educator Norwin Anne at the Art Gallery of Burlington's Living Library for a captivating textile workshop called the Talking Textiles Weaving Workshop. This event, which requires pre-registration, offers participants the opportunity to learn about the art of weaving while promoting a sustainable lifestyle.

During the workshop, Norwin Anne will discuss the negative impacts of textile waste, encouraging attendees to reflect on their role within the fashion industry and waste culture. Participants are invited to bring their used T-shirts and textile scraps, transforming them through a unique weaving technique inspired by the traditional practice of basahan from the Philippines. Norwin will demonstrate how to repurpose secondhand clothing and guide participants in creating their own textiles using a handmade loom constructed from discarded pallet skids.

Norwin Anne is a talented multidisciplinary artist, designer, and eco-culture communicator. With a waste-conscious approach and a focus on slow fashion, they bring a fresh perspective to the world of fashion and its environmental impact. Their innovative ideas and dedication to sustainability are evident through initiatives like 'From Here to Wear', a community event aimed at diverting textile waste from landfills through swaps and repairs.

Don't miss the opportunity to engage with the art of weaving and explore the possibilities of textile repurposing at the Talking Textiles Weaving Workshop with Norwin Anne. This free event will take place on December 2, 2023, at the Art Gallery of Burlington. Secure your spot now and be part of a movement towards a more sustainable future in fashion.
