Join the Hammer Museum, AMBOS, and Heart of LA for a special Art Lab event featuring Markings project artist Jackie Amézquita.
This bilingual community workshop invites you to participate in a hands-on weaving activity rooted in techniques passed down through generations of Indigenous communities originating from pueblos originarios, cantones, and aldeas across Mexico and Central America. Inspired by the cultural fabric and traditional knowledge embedded in the Markings oral history and public project, lead artist Jackie Amézquita will guide participants through this interactive experience by sharing techniques, inspiration, and the stories behind this sustainable art form that recognizes handwork as a way of preserving ancestral memory.
Alongside the workshop, AMBOS will curate an interactive installation on natural dyes and weaving, offering a closer look at the materials and processes behind this practice.
