Shavuot Wheat Weaving Workshop

Date: May 15th | 10:30 - 12:30

Materials: Provided

​

As Shavuot approaches, we invite you to a workshop exploring traditional weaving as both a material and a formal language. During the session, we will learn and apply braiding techniques to create two to three handmade wheat braids.

Wheat weaving is an ancient, cross-cultural practice, based on a repetitive, precise, and meditative action. The workshop will focus on precision, rhythm, and repetition, while developing a basic understanding of the braiding structure and its aesthetic potential.

No prior experience is necessary.

The moderator, Shahar Saban, a graduate of the Kulna Academy for Traditional Crafts, is a multidisciplinary craftswoman working in knitting, embroidery, felting, and clay.
