Join The Bare Project this September as they take over The Moor with Common Threads Festival, a celebration of weaving and textile practices from all over the world.
Taking place in a specially designed ‘woven living room’, the festival invites women and their friends and family of all ages to join in activities – including sewing and repair workshops, natural fabric dying and weaving.
Tasty pay-what-you-feel lunches will be on offer each day.
The festival will culminate in a multilingual folklore performance with live music on the Saturday evening.
Common Threads aims to showcase some of the incredible textile practices happening in Sheffield that are often hidden, and to help women who often don’t feel safe in the city to take ownership of public space.
The Bare Project are an artist-led collective who make performance and interactive artworks rooted in big ideas about the future – especially the future of the natural world.
