Workshop
Drop by tivaevae
Thursday 12 October, 5.30-7.30pm
Join Gus Fisher Gallery for an evening of fun hands-on art making as part of Artweek 2023. Tivaevae, meaning patchwork, are treasured quilts made by women in the Cook Islands that are often presented as prestigious gifts or decoration. During this drop-in session, you will learn about the different techniques for creating Tivaevae using brightly coloured fabrics. You can create your own Tivaevae to take home or have it added to a larger quilt that will be displayed in the gallery’s corridor.
Suitable for all ages. All materials provided.
All are welcome.
Please note that as Gus Fisher Gallery is closed for exhibition installation, this workshop will be held on level 3 of the Kenneth Myers Centre, 74 Shortland Street. Access via side ramp entrance.
