Stitching for Community Activism workshop

Attributes

1.30-3pm | Free, just drop in

Stitching for Community Activism is a hands-on embroidery workshop led by Welsh textile artist and researcher Ophelia Dos Santos. Rooted in community and heritage, Ophelia uses embroidery as a powerful tool for storytelling, activism, and collective care. Participants will explore how needle and thread can be used not only to mend fabric, but also to mend histories, amplify voices, and stitch together shared visions for change.

No prior sewing experience is needed – just bring your stories, ideas, and willingness to learn. This is a drop-in session, you do not need to attend the full two hours.

This event is part Grenfell: We Stand With You, a public programme that accompanies the presentation of the film Grenfell by Steve McQueen.

This national tour of Grenfell is being coordinated by Tate in collaboration with the partner venues and is made possible thanks to support using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and from Art Fund. Each presentation will be free to visit and will be accompanied by a public engagement programme of talks, workshops and community events supported by the Grenfell Foundation.
