Museum Textile Services is pleased to announce that the 2008 Pre-Columbian Textile Workshop will take place from January 9&10 in Lima and Yarinacocha, Peru.
The theme of the workshop will be “Cotton.” We will document, conserve, and mount pre-Columbian textiles and participate in an exhibition celebrating the fifth anniversary of our collaboration with the Huaca Malena Museum.
The beginning of the course will consist of a three-day excursion to the central Amazon including visits to the Shipibo people, famous for their cotton textiles.
This hands-on course is geared toward students, professionals, and others with museum sensibilities and good sewing skills who want to learn about textile conservation and pre-Columbian cultures while visiting Peru.
Applications will begin in September, 2007.
