Join our celebration of ways that women can use textiles to speak, protest and build community! Gathering Stitch showcases a beautiful new textile piece made by survivors of sexual violence and domestic abuse, alongside examples of women’s textiles from our archives. At the launch, we will host an intro and Q&A about the Survivor Arts Community project that led to this exhibition, which was facilitated by Wild & Kind Studios, Glasgow Women’s Library and Paria M. Goodarzi. 🪡 Gathering Stitch Exhibition, Thursday 13th of October to Saturday 4th February, GWL, Free 🪡 🧵 Launch: Thursday 13th October, 6pm to 7:30pm.
