Walk with Pride Weaving Screening

Join us for a unique participatory art project where community, craft, and queer storytelling come together.

In this series of weaving workshops, you will learn how to create fabric squares using any materials of their choice. Each square becomes a canvas for a personal story, with a special focus on voices from queer communities and allies.

Guided by a student facilitator and introduced by university professor, each session blends hands-on making with thoughtful reflection by turning fabric into a medium for memory.

The workshop is paired with a queer film screening where you can weave together with enjoying a film screening.

The Walking with Pride Project is a collaborative, transnational artwork that centers storytelling through textile and text. The art activism, led by international students in the Netherlands, crafts community unbound by space or place to resist and denounce the persecution of queer people globally.

The art piece is a rag-rug that reflects and evokes solidarity. Participants braid a rectangle from chosen fabrics and are invited to attach a written text reflecting on the experience. The final tapestry is a visual archive that queers storytelling and testifies to the power of art and community to resist repression, restore dignity, and celebrate humanity. It will feature in exhibitions internationally and on the Walking With pride website digitally.
