{"product_id":"banjara-embroidery","title":"Banjara Embroidery","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis class introduces the embroidery traditions of the Banjara community, a historically nomadic tribe whose ancestral roots lie in the Greater Thar region and its surrounding desert borderlands. As ancient caravan traders, the Banjara traversed these crossroads, absorbing the textile influences of the historic Indus Valley before migrating across the subcontinent. A hallmark of Banjara embroidery is its highly textured, geometric surface, relying heavily on mirror work, running stitches, dense herringbone, and chain stitches to anchor heavy embellishments. Participants will master these fundamental nomadic techniques while discovering how this striking needlework serves as a living, portable archive of the Thar region’s shared material culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDate\u003cbr\u003eThursday, January 14th, 2027\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime\u003cbr\u003e2:30-5:00 pm ET\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocation\u003cbr\u003eZoom, a link will be sent to participants the day before class\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCost\u003cbr\u003e$75\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecording\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll World Embroidery Series sessions will be recorded.
