Knots for Jews – Macramé Workshops

Art Community Building 2019-2020

Jews are all about knots. Whether tying a knot under a chuppah or on the tzitzit, Judaism is full of knot references, spiritually and physically. Macramé workshops will provide a nurturing and expressive environment for artists and non-artists alike, build connections to form long lasting relationships and provide a chance to tie spiritual Jewish symbolism with a physical art form of making knots. Art is a timeless form of self-expression and macramé provides a unique entry point to foster creativity while creating beautiful home pieces like wall art hangings, plant hangers, place mats etc. As an ancient art form, it could be meditative, soothing, imaginative and spiritual. Workshops will provide a forum for people to learn new skills, meet other artistic people, build their social networks, and explore their creativity. You will learn how to make infinity knots and transfer them into your everyday life with new friendships and connections.
