Podcasts about beading

Listening to her college-aged daughter making calls for AmeriCorps in 2020, Laura Nelkin was surprised at how many people in her community faced food insecurity and hunger every day. A problem that had seemed far away suddenly felt much closer to home, and Laura wanted to find a way to help. She had a feeling that other knitters would want to help, too, so she dreamed up a group effort: the Knit for Food Knit-a-Thon (http://www.knitforfood.com/). In its first 4 years, the effort has raised over $1.25 million for Feeding America, Meals on Wheels, No Kid Hungry, and World Central Kitchen. 2025 is poised to be the largest event yet, with more teams and knitters joining the effort every day. How does it work? Until Saturday, April 5, 2025, crafters register to participate, either as members of a team or solo. Participants reach out to friends, loved ones, colleagues, and other contacts to make a financial pledge to support the effort. Then from 10 am to 10 pm Eastern Time on April 5, participants pick up your craft of choice and knit (or crochet or stitch or whatever you like). Some teams and local craft groups organize public meetups for support. Anyone raising at least $100 receives a link to online events including stretching and knitting ergonomics, live music, games, and presentations from the four benefiting charities. At the end of the day, you've enjoyed 12 hours on your favorite craft, strengthened the fellowship of crafters, and helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars that directly feed hungry people. Laura (and her saucy alter ego, Lola) develop dozens of innovative ideas every year, from original designs to bead-knitting techniques to a brilliant method for swatching to knit in the round while knitting flat. She documents her ideas and experiments on her YouTube channel, offers kits and mystery knit-alongs, and invites knitters to join her in real life on knitting-related tours and cruises each year. The Knit for Food Knit-a-Thon brings that spirit of fun and inventiveness to a much-needed cause, building the spirit of community with every stitch and donation.

Send us a Text Message.This episode of The Heart Gallery will take you into the history and ongoing realities of Indigenous affairs in Canada. Recent years have shed light on a painful and violent history, as well as present-day systemic challenges. From the harrowing legacy of the residential school system, which remained active until the 1990s, to the continuous struggles over land rights and cultural preservation, these unfolding revelations have sparked crucial national and international dialogues. They compel us to face uncomfortable truths and prompt a critical re-examination of the process of truth and reconciliation.Against this backdrop, I'm privileged to interview Christi Belcourt, an artist whose work is deeply entwined with her Métis community's stories. Christi's art does not merely reflect Métis cultural practices and deep connection to nature; it resonates with the ongoing struggles and triumphs of indigenous people, offering a window into the soul of communities striving for justice.We explore Christi's work while also talking about how the arts can be a conduit for expressing Indigenous voices and can play a valuable role in efforts to reveal systemic challenges.I hope you enjoy this conversation.Homework from Christi: "Do something that is completely selfless - and anonymous - in the aid of someone else."Mentioned:- Keetsahnak: our missing and murdered Indigenous sisters, edited by Christi Belcourt- Medicines to help us: traditional Metis plant us, by Christi Belcourt- Hearts of Our People: Native Women Artists exhibit- Bob Marley's War- Haile Selassie's speech Towards African unity, 1963- Classically trained indigenous pianist Jeremy Dutcher- Gregory Schofield, Canadian Métis poet, beadwork artist, dramatist and non-fiction writer. - Odawa-Potawatomi artist Daphne Odjig- And please see the blog post for visual accompanimentConnect:- Christi twitter - Christi instagram - The Heart Gallery Instagram- The Heart Gallery website- Rebeka Ryvola de Kremer InstagramCredits:Samuel Cunningham for podcast editing, Cosmo Sheldrake for use of his song Pelicans We, podcast art by me, Rebeka Ryvola de Kremer.

Salisha Old Bull (Salish/Crow) is an Indigenous artist based in Montana. She creates a diverse array of art genres but has an affinity to beadwork."I am motivated by the Salish history and Indigenous place-based knowledge. I have learned that place gives a sense of self and allows a person to grow intellectually and continue to explore their possibilities in life. I feel that cultural preservation is a strong influence in my life, and I enjoy combining imagery that reflects cultural values. I use beadwork as an expression of the nature that reflects my tribal heritage. My craftsmanship cannot be possible without the upbringing and teaching of my grandmother, Rachel Arlee Bowers.I adore beadworking but, also enjoy integrating other genres such as photography, painting, and hint of digital art.Artistry has been something of a culmination of my academic studies over the years combined with my love for my Bitterroot Salish cultural values and practices. In my time in higher education one of the best moments was learning about place-based education and its interesting relevance to Indigenous ways of knowing.The basic idea of place-based education and its connection to traditional ecological knowledge is uncanny. Many Indigenous people once depended solely on their environment in reciprocal manner and this was how people were educated. Each person acquired a strength and skill set and most people had an educated connection to the land. This land is what gives a person a strong sense of self-identity. Being grounded allows a person to go forward in life and continue to grow intellectually and explore beyond their basic needs. By evoking this motivation to solidify personal, tribal self-identity, I feel that artistry can empower individuals and empower and motivate them to seek more land knowledge—traditional ecological knowledge.My overall vision is to create contemporary art, combining traditional, flat-stitch, two-needle, beadwork, with current photography and photo editing techniques. I want to capture the past, the present, and the significance of places that hold deep-seeded history for the Bitterroot Salish. I think by capturing past images and present images with traditional beadwork I can evoke this emotional response and help people to think of their roots and how they can continue to learn the historical context of our land and its ties to our existence. I hope to motivate people to recapture knowledge that is almost gone and revive it by passing it onto younger generations."Salisha Old Bull websiteSRTN Website

JESSIE FIDDLER-KISS, a Métis mother, beader, entrepreneur, and educator, taught us about Science as relationships between Land and time, how children are the best teachers of truth, love and how to play, the significance of trickster stories, anti-septic properties of moss, and the connection between swaddling and brain development. "Ancestral Podcast ⁠MERCH⁠" helps pay Knowledge Keepers and editors, to keep this podcast going. -The Moss Bag Project -Articles about Moss Bag Project on CBC⁠, Avenue Calgary, Telus Spark Science Centre here⁠ -the importance of community and Aunties supporting mothers. “the moss bag is the anchor” (Jessie Fiddler-Kiss) -“children are our greatest teachers,” they are the closest to spirit, learning from the world around them; a method of learning often forgotten by adults. Children teach us about love, play, and new beginnings. -education systems need to allow for children to learn through play, discovery, failure, and follow their own sparks.  -“Indigenous Methodology: Characteristics, Conversations, and Contexts” Margaret Kovach. -think about the limitations Western academic processes and methods exert on knowledges that are connected with Land and Community?

Its absorbant properties meant there were little (if no) diaper rash. It is antibacterial and has been used on wounds to heal and protect them. It is reusable, when the moss is used up, it went back to the earth.-“Antibacterial activities of some mosses...” Kang et al., here - Swaddling mimics how babies are held in the womb and how they are delivered from the spirit world. It supports brain development in babies by continuing to hold them post birth. At this time, baby and mothers/fathers are flooded with hormones to allow for neuroplasticity- a perfect time for family healing, learning, and growth! Skin to skin regulates the baby, sleeping better when near loved ones. -being in a moss bag, alongside those working, gathering, telling stories, allows for babies to be observant, always learning from their environment. -Beading & Moss Bags. Each community/family has unique symbols, colours, & patterns of beading. Métis beading: colourful, usually on a black background, florals, plant medicines, and patterns of rotation & scale.

Catalyst is a Creative Industries podcast, from Chapman University. Each episode features Chapman students who have completed a Podcasting course through the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries at the university. Students who had no podcasting experience or technical ability in the genre before taking the course were able to contribute all the segments to Catalyst this season with the goal being that they will take this ‘hands-on' experience and carry it over to the launching of their very own series. Each episode of Season 10 will feature one to two different interviews conducted by CCI students, exploring different aspects of the Creative and Cultural Industries. We start the show this week with Melissa Wong who sat down with the founder, designer, and owner of Anna Learns Things, Anna Dong. The company, which is solely run by Dong, specializes in making handmade beaded jewelry, accessories, and textiles. Born out of a pandemic hobby that launched as an Instagram page, Anna has turned the company into her fashion-based career. Melissa discusses with Anna her original plans post college where she studied Neuroscience and Biochemistry, how those plans evolved and finally how she now navigates the fast-paced fashion industry as a small business owner. To wrap the show this week, listen along Maddie Mullany interviews Rachel Ellenbogen. A New York based designer and embroiderer, Ellenbogen is a 2022 graduate of Parsons BFA Fashion Design who works in clothing design, textile embroidery and art pieces. She has worked on embroidery teams with designers such as Alexander McQueen and Versace and was sponsored by Swarovski on her Parsons School of Design graduate collection “Terms & Conditions” who provided her with crystals to embellish her collection pieces. During their conversation, Mullany and Ellenbogen talk about Rachel's creative process and inspiration when it comes to fashion and design, as well as the concept of “wearable art” and how CCI relates to this idea of a collaboration of mediums, like visual arts, haute couture, and slow fashion.

Artist Teri Pohlmeier is a mostly self taught jewelry designer based out of Fuquay Varina, NC. She always loved pretty rocks and sparkly things, but it wasn't until she was an adult that she discovered the world of jewelry making. She started out doing simple stringing and after experimenting with several styles settled into wire weaving. Shortly thereafter, she discovered bead embroidery, which she quickly realized she loved just as much as wire. To see Ter's work check out her website and follow her on Facebook & Instagram.

Beaded earrings are a visual reminder that we are still here and will not be assimilated. Every piece is a statement of our resistance. We'll look at how beading has become an act of resistance and how it still is a part of trade and commerce.

We're rewinding back to October 2018 to revisit our episode with Collins Provost, who has since been expanding her artistry — spray painting and working on murals with her husband, and designing shirts for Thrive Unltd., which is meant to empower indigenous communities. Lakhota artist Collins Provost finds healing and self expression through her intricate and vibrant beadwork. Listen to this episode of The Cultured Podcast to uncover Collins' deep-rooted journey as an artisan and how her Native American heritage both inspired and challenged her individual path.
