About

2024 UCSF Library Artist in Residence, Ruth Tabancay, presents “Bacteria as an Embroidered Stitch.”

Join us for a craft that celebrates what’s seen under the microscope! In this hands-on embroidery workshop, artist Ruth Tabancay will teach participants how to make two types of stitches that resemble bacteria as seen microscopically and mealworms in actual size! Instructions will be provided on how to create embroidery set in Petri dishes. Experience is helpful but not necessary to participate.

The workshop is presented on Earth Day, April 22, to draw attention to the extreme problem of plastic pollution that is overwhelming the planet. This is an in-person workshop. All materials will be provided.
