Come and participate in a bandana-making workshop with Erika Silva from the Chilean feminist art collective Memorarte. Book your free tickets .

The workshop offers an opportunity to discuss the power of embroidery in social justice campaigns as you learn to sew bandanas. “A bandana that I wear over my mouth conveys what I feel, what I want to demand and what annoys me about democracy in my country” says Silva. No prior experience of sewing is necessary, just a curious mind!

Organised by Naomi Polonsky and Lorna Dillon the curators of What Lies Beneath: Women, Politics, Textiles, in collaboration with curatorial assistants Laura Moseley, Koni Borowiak, Francesca Vella Bonnici and Annie Roberts. Supported by the Leverhulme Trust, the Art Fund and the British Academy.
