Subject Matters: October 2020 ART AS ACTIVISM

 


Our October Subject Matters theme is Art as Activism. 

Craftivism is a form of activism that often uses fiber arts (think knitting, embroidery, cross-stitch, and quilting) to raise consciousness about important topics. A softer gentler way to revolt! Read the Craftivism Manifesto here. Link

What is Street Art? Is it just the same as graffiti? Check out our October YouTube playlist to learn about Street Art and Art Activists all over the world! Link

This month our craft kit is a collaborative community project! Pick up a kit, create a quilt square (no sewing experience needed) and return to the library once completed to be added to a community quilt! We have a kid's craft kit too, mini sewn banners!
