Stitching Together Networking Session

Amy Twigger Holroyd, Nottingham Trent University

An interactive online networking session for people with interests in participatory textile making workshops and projects

This free two-hour online event aims to support people with interests in participatory textile making activities to forge new connections for future conversations and collaborations.You are invited to come along if you would like to meet others involved in participatory textile making. For example, you might represent an enthusiast group whose members are keen to work with an academic researcher to explore a particular question; you might be a commissioner interested in meeting new facilitators for future projects; you might be a facilitator interested in making links with fellow facilitators for mutual support; or any other combination! The registration form asks a series of questions about your location, role, interests and who you would like to meet at the networking session. We will use attendees' responses to organise breakout groups ... and then see what develops!The event is organised and hosted by the coordinators of the <a href="https://stitchingtogether.net" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Stitching Together network</a>: Dr Emma Shercliff (Arts University Bournemouth) and Dr Amy Twigger Holroyd (Nottingham Trent University). The network fosters critical dialogue around participatory textile making methods in research and practice and has been funded by the Arts &amp; Humanities Research Council from January 2019 to June 2021.Please note that Stitching Together does not have the capacity to coordinate connections following the networking event: attendees will be encouraged to follow up potential connections and ideas themselves. We will, of course, be delighted to hear about how any ideas initiated at this session may develop in future!This event builds on a free network <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/stitching-together-study-day-tickets-150147508239">Study Day event </a>on Thursday 13 May, which is still open for booking.
