Join artist Ebby El‑Sharwaky for a hands-on tatreez workshop 🧵, the traditional Palestinian art of embroidery. 
Learn how to stitch traditional Palestinian Tatreez on something you already own! You bring the item and we provide all the supplies and instructions!

Item requirements: must be made from a non-stretchable woven fabric i.e. canvas tote, linen shirt, etc.

*WPFF totes will be available for purchase. 

Ebtisam ‘Ebby’ El-Sharkawy is the curator and collector behind Reclaiming Our Collective Inheritance: A Palestinian Diaspora Collection, a traveling archive dedicated to honoring Palestinian culture & heritage. What began as a mission to rescue a single mislabeled Thobe grew into a mobile museum dedicated to educating audiences on the historical and regional significance of Palestinian embroidery and dress.

We are excited to have the event hosted by District 48, a Palestinian-owend and operated bar, restaurant and event space at 534 West Ridge Road, down the street from Kodak park. Follow them on instagram @_district48.
