FAMILY DAY at Krasl Art Center | BLACK HISTORY MONTH – FREEDOM QUILTS

February 8 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

Free & Open to All Ages

Saturday, February 8th, 11 am – 12:30 pm

Free & Open to All Ages 

Enslaved people of African descent used secret messages encoded into songs and sewn into quilts to safely traverse the Underground Railroad Network. Learn about the history of the designs used in these quilt squares by freedom seekers. We will make squares like Crossroads, Shoofly, and North Star by utilizing paper cutting and collage techniques.

On the second Saturday of every month, Krasl Art Center has free artmaking activities for the whole family!

 

Projects have included DIY Bubble Wands, Rock Painting, Ski Slope Racing, and much more! See what we have planned this month at krasl.org/events/featured-events/

 

Come down to 707 Lake Boulevard from 11 am – 12:30 pm and create something special.
