Beyond Borders: Spinning Gandhi’s Nonviolence into Climate Justice and Resistance

Beyond Borders - it’s a symbol of resilience, autonomy, and collective action. Inspired by Gandhi’s spinning wheel, this workshop connects fiber arts to movements for justice, sustainability, and decolonization. In a world shaped by climate crises and systemic oppression, spinning offers a grounding practice, transforming raw fiber into thread—just as we build networks of care and resistance. Participants will learn hands-on spinning techniques while exploring its deeper significance. Through shared conversation, we will reclaim craft as a tool for activism, ancestral knowledge and imagining sustainable futures rooted in connection, care, and collective power.
