Come for one or come for all—together we’ll stitch\, alter\, repair\, and imagine new forms of expression. \nSchedule:\nSun\, Sep 14 | Hidden Pocket \nBring a piece of clothing to transform with a secret pocket. \nSun\, Sep 21 | Boro Workshop & “Finish It” Clinic \nMake a boro-style cleaning rag\, potholder\, or coaster—or bring back a past project to finish. \nSun\, Sep 28 | Cloth Book Cover \nBring a favorite book and create a custom cloth cover. \nSun\, Oct 5 | Protest Hut \nInspired by shelters made by Crimean Tatars. \nSun\, Oct 12 | Disaster Shirt & Visible Repair \nAdd embroidered text to a shirt or jacket\, plus another chance to finish earlier projects. \nSun\, Oct 19 | Paper Book Cover \nStart a three-week series on folded paper objects. Bring a book to wrap. \nSun\, Oct 26 | Portable Altar \nMake origami boxes and stands. \nSun\, Nov 2 | Memorial Accordion Book \nCoinciding with Day of the Dead\, design a decorated accordion book from cloth\, paper\, or drawing. \nSun\, Nov 9 | Image/Text Collage: Mini-Zine \nUse old magazines to create a one-page zine or collage. \nSun\, Nov 16 | Image/Text Collage: Reveal/Conceal \nPlay with envelopes and folding forms that hide and reveal images and text. \nSun\, Nov 23 | Image/Text Collage: Accordion or Box \nCraft books or boxes entirely from salvaged magazine and book pages. \nSun\, Dec 7 | Mail Art: Postcards \nExperiment with small-scale postal art. \nSun\, Dec 14 | Mail Art: Folding Cards \nMake folding cards with or without custom envelopes. \nSun\, Dec 21 | Mail Art: Mail-a-Scroll \nSend a scroll through the USPS—cloth or paper\, testing the limits of the post. \nAbout the teaching artist \nKate Ingold is an LA-based artist and poet working with the discarded\, the damaged\, and the worn out.
