About
The Rhinoceros Project, led by Michelle Wilson and Anne Beck, hosts a community sewing circle at the Downtown Library in Palo Alto. Participants help build large embroidered maps tracing historic routes across California and Mexico, adding stitches that connect personal experience with layered histories of place, movement, and migration. This session will focus on embroidering iterations of the scale bar from the Nuremberg map of Tenochtitlán (1524), a collaboration underway since 2018. Participants of all ages and skill levels are welcome; no sewing experience is needed and all materials are provided. Presented as part of the ArtLift Grants Program through the City of Palo Alto Public Art Program.
