Join us as artist Shakeera Thomas shares her artistic story while demonstrating the process of using her grandmothers masala brick—a grinding kitchen tool that has been passed down for five generations and used by her ancestors to grind spices. This introspective talk will provide insight on Shakeera’s artistic journey as a crochet artist and accessory designer, while unearthing the directed impact her ancestry and Guyanese culture has on her work. Before participants leave, they will have the opportunity to savor (individually wrapped) homemade Dhal Puri and Roti.
