To expand on the ideas behind her Solidarity Banners art installation at the East Side Freedom Library, Rachel Breen convenes a team of sewists in a performance on the grounds of the Library. Their activities will express solidarity with garment workers around the world by sewing the common clothing of garment workers in Bangladesh—the Shalwar Kameez. After an hour of sewing, the public is welcome to join the sewists inside the Library for a conversation about the relationships between garment workers’ rights and climate change and our role in addressing these issues. Snacks provided.
