Virtual Lecture: Tatreez Symbolisms Interpreting Meaning in Palestinian Embroidery Motifs & Al Naksa

Virtual Lecture: Tatreez Symbolisms Interpreting Meaning in Palestinian Embroidery Motifs & Al Naksa 🗓 Friday, June 6, 2025 ⏰ 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM EST 📍 Online (Zoom link sent 24 hours prior) 🎟 Sliding scale registration 👤 Instructor: Wafa Ghnaim, Dress Historian & Educator
This lecture commemorates the Six-Day War (June 5–10, 1967), which began the ongoing Israeli military occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem. In the wake of this seismic event, tatreez shifted in its meaning and function as a form cultural expression. From the intimate labor of individual women’s hands to the international recognition of Palestinian embroidery by UNESCO in 2021 as Intangible Cultural Heritage, tatreez continues to serve as a vessel of collective memory and a historical record of the Palestinian people.
