Passing Along Hands-On Knowledge

Fifth-generation Navajo master weavers Lynda Teller Pete and Barbara Teller Ornelas came to Dartmouth earlier this month to lead a multiday workshop on weaving.

The Navajo Weaving Workshop was supported by a Design Initiative at Dartmouth grant and stemmed from a collaboration by faculty and staff to provide an immersive, cross-disciplinary experience with hands-on learning, centered on an Indigenous way of knowing.
