Weave A Real Peace will present a Zoom Panel on Saturday May 15th from 1:00-2:00, EDT.  The panel will include three younger WARP members as presenters who have all fashioned a life that includes textiles.

Lola Faturoti creates colorful sustainable made on demand fashion that celebrates tradition and joy with the mission to reduce the landfill waste and produced in an earth friendly manner. WARP’s administrative coordinator, Kelsey Viola Wiskirchen is a studio artist who has worked with art educators, underserved youth, the refugee community in St. Louis, and is now teaching textile classes online.  Artist and designer, Cynthia Alberto founded Brooklyn-based Weaving Hand studio and healing arts center which incorporates unconventional materials and a zero-waste philosophy in teaching and collaborates with international weavers.

The panel will be moderated by WARP member Judi Jetson, who has significant experience in promoting crafts, particularly textiles.  There will be ample opportunity for questions from those attending this panel.
