Use a frame loom to make a square for a collaborative rug planned for Craft Contemporary’s Air exhibition in May 2027.
All times are local to the venue · America/Los Angeles
At this Craft Contemporary gathering, the announced result is a small woven square for a shared rug—not a separate finished project. Visitors will work with Aneesa Shami Zizzo on a piece planned for the museum’s Air exhibition in May 2027.
The planned rug will combine squares made by visitors, volunteers, Craft Contemporary staff and Zizzo. That makes each person’s work a component of a larger textile, with the finished piece intended for exhibition beyond the gathering itself.
The event listing identifies the upcoming Air exhibition as the rug’s planned destination and says it is scheduled to open in May 2027.
