Quilting Bee

  • Standard Parts Studios - Outdoor Courtyard 928 East 12th Street Oakland, CA, 94606 (map)

We will come together in a traditional quilting bee gathering to finish quilts that will be raffled for Palestine. These quilts have been designed as part of an ongoing fundraiser supporting mutual aid efforts both local to the Bay and in Gaza. In this workshop we will learn a very basic and accessible quilting method called tie-quilting. The space will be held by a white non-binary person and will accommodate people of all skill levels and interests. It won't accommodate Zionism, anti-semitism, Islamophobia, white supremacy or devils advocates. While this space will not be specifically facilitated for discussions around the ongoing genocide it will aim to hold whatever its participants feel like bringing.

Fund Allocation:
This is a donation based event with suggested $20-$50 (NOTAFLOF). The completed quilts will then be raffled off through late spring and summer. Money we raise will be evenly split between fundraisers listed in @fundsforgaza Linktree.

This event is hosted in collaboration with Cordy Joan @coanofsilence
