Roles, Rules, & Responsibility: Northern California Two-Spirit Weavers

Where
SRJC Multicultural Museum, Bussman Hall

Friday, November 3 | 4:00 - 6:00 pm

SRJC Multicultural Museum, Bussman Hall

This exhibit displays the talents of three Northern California Indian [two spirit] weavers; Silver Galleto (Southern Pomo/Coast Miwok), Jarred Lincoln-Stremberg (Karuk), and Augustine Granados-Young (Maidu) who found healing and identity through traditional weaving. Each weaver from their own respective tribes have honed their talents and developed their love of traditional weaving as a way to heal themselves and revitalize and strengthen their ties to their cultures. While each weaver comes from a different culture, some of the traditions parallel each other, and further show that weaving must be shared to ensure its survival regardless of it’s done by a male or female- the preservation is the priority.
