Upcoming Presentations: Free Your Mind at Two Conferences

I am thrilled to share that I will be presenting Free Your Mind at two upcoming prestigious events this November!

American Folklore Society Annual Conference

Dates: November 6-9
Location: Albuquerque, NM

Attendees of the American Folklore Society Annual Conference will have an opportunity to participate in Free Your Mind interactive exhibition and explore their own implicit biases and release any microaggressions.   I am looking forward to opportunity to connect with folklorists to share insights and expanding my understanding diverse American folklore.

2024 Textile Society of America Symposium: “Shifts and Strands: Rethinking the Possibilities and Potentials of Textiles”

Dates: November 12-17
Location: Zoom

The second presentation will be at the 2024 Textile Society of America Symposium, titled “Shifts and Strands: Rethinking the Possibilities and Potentials of Textiles.” During this virtual event, I’ll be discussing how Free Your Mind uses textiles and memory to convey emotions, and create healing, thereby pushing the boundaries of traditional textile art.

I look forward to engaging with participants and sharing the journey of Free Your Mind with a broader audience.

Stay tuned for more updates as I prepare for these exciting events!
