Embroidered Recipes: A Culinary and Cultural Journey hosted by Unidas por Hilos

Community Rooms A and B and Kitchen Combined
Saturday, Nov 9, 2024, 2:00pm to 4:00pm

Join Unidas por Hilos for monthly workshops where a member will teach participants how to prepare a traditional meal, share personal memories associated with the dish, and embroider the recipe on cloth from the tablecloths used during the meals. 

Unidas por Hilos is a community of Latina immigrants, living in Dane county, Wisconsin, who create textile art and community. Their group provides a safe and inclusive space where Latinas connect with each other and share their experiences as immigrants living in the United States.  Through their textile art, they not only showcase their cultural heritage, but also share their stories, struggles, and triumphs. Their group is a testament to the power of community and the resilience of immigrant communities. Although they come from different countries and backgrounds, they are united by their love of art making and shared experiences as immigrants. 

 

This is a FREE workshop.

Registration is required to participate.
