Join Makiko Maekawa for a fun and creative community art event designed especially for kids! Kids will be working together to create a large and beautiful weaving art piece that will be on display in Atlanta Contemporary’s next Exhibition, opening on October 24th. The weaving project invites young artists to explore their creativity and work together to create a vibrant, collaborative piece of art—a beautiful tapestry designed to foster and highlight how community togetherness can create something beautiful.
