Virtual Tour and Discussion: Aboriginal Women’s Fiber Art from Gapuwiyak

The Kluge-Ruhe Collection joins Charlottesville’s annual Festival of Cultures in hosting a virtual travel adventure. Join the education staff as we journey to the remote community of Gapuwiyak in northern Australia t explore the thriving contemporary fiber arts practiced by Aboriginal women there. We will explore the diverse spiritual, cultural and practical meanings of the artwork and the many rich ways they are connected to identity, life and the natural world.
