About this Program

Tatreez, or embroidery, is a rich art form that has been passed down across generations in Palestinian communities. At Al-Mujadilah, join a collective of skilled women from Gaza to learn this rich tradition. Through colorful threads and intricate designs, participants will craft a pattern for a tray, weaving this historic tradition into fabric. This program is ideal for participants with basic experience in Tatreez or other forms of embroidery. The registration fee includes the cost of finishing your tray with a wooden frame at a specialized workshop.

If you find it difficult to cover the fees and require financial assistance, please apply for a fee waiver at this link: https://forms.office.com/r/PeftT1i6v5

A Collective of Women from Gaza

Al-Mujadilah is honored to host a collective of Palestinian women from Gaza - homemakers, doctors, nurses, mothers, grandmothers, aunts, teachers, and students, all who've left lives behind before being brought together by the thread. Skillfull in their practice of tatreez, they put joy, grit, and energy into their work and are passionate about sharing their talents with those around them. Learn from the masters of the trade - some since their youth, and some only within the last few months, who have grown to weave the threads of their lives amidst a community of resilient, powerful women.
