Redwood Time: Fabric Gathering


  • Larry Spring Museum of Common Sense Physics 225 East Redwood Avenue Fort Bragg, CA, 95437 United States (map)

Now through October 13 at Larry Spring Museum 225 E Redwood Ave, 12-5 PM

We are seeking personal or historically significant fabric from the community that will be sewn together to make the fabric Round. This could be a favorite piece of clothing, or an old bedsheet, a handkerchief from an elder, or a swatch of hand-woven fabric. Ideally, the fabric is neutral in color, without pattern, and is a plant-based fiber: cotton, linen, hemp, etc. Along with the fabric, we will collect short stories/histories of the significance of the fabric. 

Please note: the fabric will be cut, dyed, and sewn into the model Redwood Round, and thus will not be returnable! 

Message the Larry Spring Museum to let us know you are coming by, as we are interested in documenting the history of your donation.

This project was made possible with support from California Humanities, a partner of the NEH. Visit calhum.org
