Art Night: Weave Your Pride

Celebrate Pride Month with a night of artistry, community building, and empowerment in a safe and supportive space. Alex Makes Art will be leading Weave Your Pride, a mixed media experience in TEXTILES! We will work our way through raffia ribbon, roving wool, embroidery floss, ribbon, and other types of textured bits. There will be a bead buffet and other adornments to add along the way!

 

About the presenter: Alexandra Adamo, owner of Alex Makes Art, is a Multimedia Artist who is passionate about texture, activating public spaces, and leading creative experiences with intergenerational gathering at the core. Alex was the Lead Artist for the Community Arts Initiative for 2022-23 at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where she brought her exhibition, "From Farm to Table," to life. Alex is working on a new series of sculpture work at her studio in Central Square - in between painting murals and hosting shebangs. Her muse is her English angora rabbit, Rufus, and you may see her rollin' by on her turquoise and cheetah rollerskates with a snack in hand.
