Description
This is an Adult Program. In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. We'll learn about Huichol Yarn Art and make our own art. Nierikas (pronounced Near-eeka) are traditional yarn paintings made by the Huichol people.
Event Details
Natural glue, made from tree resin and beeswax, is applied to a board, and yarn is pressed into it and left to harden. The designs and symbols on the Nierikas are based on their myths, stories and personal daily activities.
