Learn how to weave using a cardboard loom with artist Rachel Lozada. Create winter-themed images as Rachel shares her skills and knowledge of traditional Filipinx weaving. Space limited. Reservations required: (415) 355-5666.
Rachel Lozada is a community-based arts worker and weaver who is committed to creating a renaissance of traditional and indigenous Filipino weaving in the Diaspora. Since 2013, she has been conducting weaving demonstrations, workshops and collaborative projects with various community and arts organizations. Her deep community-engaged model of weaving practice is unearthing the depth of buried histories of weaving traditions within Filipino American immigrant families mirroring the history of female weavers in her own family. She believes that weaving is not a spectator art, and by making various looms available for people to try out and experience, she breaks the misconception that weaving is too difficult and challenging to take on.
