Weave In, Weave Out is a fiber art exhibition where the audience and artists come together to create a shared experience of creativity and community. When you step into Weave In, Weave Out, you will be warmly invited to take a seat at the loom. Whether you’re a seasoned weaver or a first-time participant, everyone is welcome to add their stamp of creativity to the ongoing evolution of the exhibition. The featured artworks offer sparks of inspiration, while Intertwine Arts staff will be on hand for guidance and support.
Combining performance, installation, and live social sculpture, Weave In, Weave Out is a major exhibition hosted by Positive Exposure of site-specific fiber work by contemporary disabled artists from Intertwine Arts. The title of the exhibition alludes to the spatial nature of the exhibition, where visitors are encouraged to come and go within the space, or drop in or out, over the two-month duration that the gallery has become a live social sculpture, or a socially engaged art practice. Intertwine Arts is a non-profit organization based in New York which brings free-form weaving to people of all ages with developmental, mental and physical disabilities and chronic illness. The mission of Intertwine Arts is that weaving is for everyone, and that fiber arts should be accessible, which also ascribes to the principles of disability justice. The Disability Justice movement is a social justice movement developed in 2005 by the Disability Justice Collective that included Patty Berne, Stacey Milbern and Leroy Moore. Many of the looms that artists from Intertwine Arts use have been designed with accessible modifications to meet the needs of crip time and the unique capacities that disabled embodiment brings. While the work of Intertwine Arts is not clinically-driven, such as art therapy-based interventions, there is a shared and mutual understanding of the holistic and generative benefits that weaving offers, where it fosters creativity and independence, increases feelings of self-worth and satisfaction, and offers opportunities for unique expressions of memories, lived experiences, and the imagination. The organization facilitates art-weaving workshops with organizations that include AHRC, Visions, HeartShare, IAHD and the YAI Without Walls program.
The exhibition is open for appointment where visitors can engage in learning how to weave at the loom while working alongside Intertwine artists in the gallery space. The exhibition is also accompanied by accessible features, including live-streaming for those who wish to participate in weaving and observing virtually, a dedicated webpage for audiences at home, and performative image descriptions of works as weavings are made in-situ.

Lincoln Center’s Songwriter/Storyteller seeks to champion innovators of the singer-songwriter genre, celebrating the craft and artistry central to their work. Improviser, vocalist, record label founder, and scholar Miriam Elhajli is based out of Flatbush, Brooklyn.

The result is multifaceted and thoughtful with sounds that borrow from Appalachian country tunes, agitprop spoken word, Argentinian zamba, and much more. Elhajli’s eclectic style and “haunting voice” (The New York Times) will be on full display at her Lincoln Center debut at the David Rubenstein Atrium.
