Salley Mavor will talk about her long career creating imaginative miniature worlds with three-dimensional embroidery. Her presentation will explore a wide range of artistic endeavors, including children’s book illustration, stand-alone artwork, and stop-motion animation, demonstrating that there are no limits to what can be expressed with a needle and thread.

Go behind the scenes of Mavor’s creative process and learn where it began, how it’s evolved, and what continues to inspire her work.

Copies of My Bed: Enchanting Ways to Fall Asleep around the World will be available for purchase, followed by a book signing.

This talk coincides with the exhibition My Bed - Enchanting Ways to Fall Asleep around the World.
