Take Home: Hispanic Heritage Month Hand Weaving

The art of weaving can be found throughout Hispanic culture from clothing to household items, to religious rituals. Weaving is a very old tradition of interlinking a set of vertical threads with a set of horizontal threads. Though most weaving is done by machine (called a loom), weaving can be done by hand. Starting September 21^st the Main Library will be handing out hand weaving kits in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Kits will be available via curbside between Monday through Thursday between 9am-7pm and Friday between 9am-5pm.
