IT’S A WRAP! The Art of Traditional Hair Wrapping
Instructors Kianga Jinaki & Ayize Hanif

Sunday October 13, 2019
1 to 3 PM

Join fiber artist Kianga Jinaki and dancer/artist Ayize Hanif for a fascinating afternoon that begins with an overview of the history of head wraps. Next, Kianga and Ayize will demonstrate how to wrap using various lengths of fabric (half yard, one yard, two yards). You’ll receive your own half yard of beautiful printed Ankara fabric from Africa, instruction, and time to practice. Additional Ankara fabric will be available for purchase, too. This workshop is all about bridge-building, inclusivity, and understanding… and everyone looks beautiful with wrapped hair!
