Thank you for sharing our newest exhibition Thread Memory: Embroidery from Palestine @theskinnymag.bsky.social 🥰

This free exhibition is now until spring 2026, read more below 👇
"Few [Palestinians] are living in the places that their tatreez comes from. The one way of actually preserving their identity and who they are is by tatreez"

Thread Memory: Embroidery From Palestine is at @vadundee.bsky.social until Spring 2026
Stitches in Time: Tatreez as a symbol of Palestinian culture - The Skinny
A tale of threads, travel, storytelling and collective histories form a pair of Scottish exhibitions which explore the traditional Palestinian embroidery of the tatreez.
