Join Kirsi Manni, a textile artist, historian, and educator for a discussion about the living tradition of folk costumes around her home in Dalarna, Sweden. Kirsi will share her story of moving to Siljasnäs, Dalarna and becoming involved in the folk dancing and costume community, before ultimately finding a role in documenting, preserving, and now passing on traditional weaving and textile techniques at risk of extinction.
Kirsi Manni is the owner of Art&Craft Sweden and lives in Siljansäs, Dalarna. Over one week this fall, Kirsi will bring her expertise in Leksand style folk dress to ASI. Kirsi is also offering an introductory embroidery workshop and more intensive needlework project workshop.
