Admission: Free.
Event Summary
Using yarn, quilting scraps, handmade papers, and weaving as the primary technique, the work exposes a recurring cycle in America. In times of crisis, women are called to action. When the crisis ends, their labor is praised but as time passes, it is overlooked, and their freedoms are pushed back into “traditional” roles. Fiber acts as evidence, revealing a nation that repeatedly demands women hold it together at its worst while denying them lasting power or authority at its best. Soft craft, sharp resistance.
Created in celebration of Women’s History Month (whether or not our government permits diversity, equity, and inclusion) this series declares that women’s histories, labor, and rights do not require permission. People need people to survive, and humans need humanity to thrive. That truth runs through every stitch, every weave, and every torn and mended seam. In 2026, too many living generations
know freedoms that women before us were denied. That knowledge carries responsibility and this work refuses to surrender it. Seams Like a Protest affirms that resistance is never quiet and never solitary. It is carried through community, by women lifting women, sharing the weight of the cycle, and holding the line like those before us for those after us.
