Join us for a special workshop this Saturday with Tiersa Nureyev!

Special Workshop with Tiersa Nureyev:
Saturday, March 1, 2–4PM
1275 Minnesota street
Free for all ages, materials provided!

During this free workshop, visitors will have a chance to make a quilted keepsake or paper quilt collage and also contribute a creative element to the collaborative monumental quilt to be installed SFArtsED Gallery at MSP September of 2025.

This project is design as part of Tiersa Nureyev’s Soft Spaces for Hard Times: A Community Quilting Project.

Soft Spaces For Hard Times: A Community Quilting project will bring together three Bay Area fiber artists, SFArtsED teaching artists, and San Francisco youth to make a monumental textile collage quilt. This project will be a symbolic and tangible act of connecting individuals and communities that are healing from the COVID pandemic, and isolation as a result of the quarantine. This project will unfold over the next year in the San Francisco Arts Education gallery at Minnesota Street Project, and in public schools across San Francisco. In September 2025 “Soft Spaces” will culminate with an immersive and interactive textile installation.
