--------------------------
This year’s theme is Sew Around the World! We will be exploring sewing and fiber arts traditions from various countries and regions.
Some projects will include batik, weaving, block print, embroidery, natural dyes, and so much more! Each week we will learn a new word like Shibori, Bogolanfini, Kente, and terms like resist dye and oxidization to describe the techniques and the science behind each tradition. Students will explore language and storytelling through Western African textile traditions, and various embroidery techniques from India and Japan. We will also look at Native American traditions as well as various fiber arts from South America and Scandinavia. There is so much to explore! This is one of our favorite camp themes and we can’t wait to share!
