Mini Woven Ornament Workshop with Vanessa Vigil - Vavi Trenzitaz

Join us for an afternoon of Building Community Through Craft at Cielo!

This November, we're excited to welcome Vavi Trenzitaz (Vanessa Vigil), one of our newest artists at the gallery, for a fun creative weaving workshop. 

During this beginner-friendly workshop, you'll learn the basics of weaving on a loom while creating your very own mini handwoven ornament to take home. A lovely way to try something new, get creative, and spend an afternoon making something with your hands!
