Using yarn, synthetic hair, fabric strips, and other miscellaneous fibers and materials, SHENEQUA creates stunning and meaningful woven pieces. She will take us into her studio to generously share her work with our community. Attendees are encouraged to work alongside her as she demonstrates one of her signature techniques.⁠
