Willowdale Nowruz Celebration 2024
Collaborators: Willowdale City Office and Tirgan Organization
Format: Public workshop
Location: Toronto
Topics: Carpet / Kilim / Tapestry weaving
During the Nowruz Festival on March 9, 2024, our team had the pleasure of collaborating with Willowdale City Office and Tirgan Organization in holding an interactive Persian Carpet, Kilim and Tapestry workshop designed for attendees of all ages. Through individual training, we provided a brief overview of traditional weaving techniques, allowing participants to experience weaving the craft firsthand. The event fostered cultural exchange by introducing international visitors to Persian textiles while offering Iranian children a meaningful connection to their ancestral art and heritage.
