Making Space is an NC State University Libraries event series that features underrepresented groups in science and technology. Join us for a talk featuring River Takada-Capel. River is a Durham based mixed media and fiber artist, instructor, and homemaker who teaches sewing and textile classes. River has taught courses for The Scrap Exchange, The ArtsCenter, NC Museum of Art, Freeman’s Creative, NC State Craft Center, community colleges and many other organizations. River continues to share her passion for all things textile and sewing through her brand RIVTAK, where you can purchase a variety of textile and art materials in addition to finding out more information via her blog and workshops.
In this talk River will be discussing her profession as an artist and creator, as well as her informative practice of using textiles as a mindful social practice that speaks to both her background and her understanding of the relationship we have with our clothes.
River will also host a workshop after her talk. If you're interested in participating, please register here.
