EVENT: Amazing course starting next week! Text & Textile - Spinning Tales & Threads

Amazing course starting next week in Jerusalem - studying Hebrew and English literary texts (all in English) while learning a range of different embroidery stitches and techniques! (See the link below for the full syllabus.) They still have a few spots available.


Course in English: Text & Textile - Spinning Tales & Threads

We often think of our lives - and of stories we read - as threads spun, knitted or interwoven with others into the fabric of texts.

This course will explore the ties of text and textile through the study of both classic and modern works in Hebrew and English literature (provided in English).

It will focus on the many instances in which for women the needle served as a substitute for the pen.


The literary study will be accompanied by exercises in practical embroidery stitches and techniques.

We will occupy our minds with stories and poems, and our hands with thread and cloth.

Dr. Esther Horowitz, Lecturer in Literature at Herzog College, will be teaching this innovative course in English.


Tuesdays, 10:30-12:00, at Herzog College - Heichal Shlomo Campus, Jerusalem. 12 meetings.

Opening date: Tuesday March 3, 2020
