SUMMARY:Creative Darning and Mending with Riley Kleve - Canceled
DESCRIPTION:Add some new life to well-loved clothing using basic darning and mending techniques. Students can bring some of their own clothes to darn and mend using tools and supplies provided by instructor Riley Kleve. Students will learn to select materials\, use various tools\, and care for mended and darned clothing in class. Students will leave with new techniques for beautiful mends that add color\, pattern\, and durability to their clothing. \n \nSchedule: During this short class\, students will get an introduction to methods of mending and darning that bring individuality to their clothing. There will be a balance of lecture\, demonstration\, and hands-on practice! For an additional $20\, students have the option of bringing a mending disc home to continue their repairs. \n \nPrerequisites/Skill Level/Age Requirements: \n\nNo prior experience required.\nAges 18+\n\nRegister on EventBrite to guarantee your spot! \nCancellation Policy: Up to 3 weeks before the event – 50% refund. Under 3 weeks before the event\, no refunds. \nRiley Kleve is a nonbinary textile artist and educator creating collaborative work in community-led settings. Their work in weaving\, handspinning\, and embroidery draws from history to create a queerer vision for the future of textiles. Some recent highlights include weaving felted pins and inviting viewers to name them based on gender feelings they evoke\, creating a co-woven tapestry with over 110 attendees at a dusk-till-dawn arts festival\, and facilitating drop-in LGBT craft nights. Riley has a self-directed BA in craft from Hampshire College and is a 2024-26 Resident Artisan at North House Folk School.

SUMMARY:Author Talk and Book Signing - Eric Dregni "Vikings in the Attic"
DESCRIPTION:Hear author Eric Dregni make a presentation about writing his book\, Vikings in the Attic: In Search of Nordic America. In his book\, Eric tracks down and explores the significant — often bizarre — historic sites\, tales\, and traditions of Scandinavia’s peculiar colony in the Midwest. Eric reveals the little-known tales that lie beneath the surface of Nordic America and proves by example why generations of Scandinavian-Americans have come to love and cherish these tales and traditions so dearly.  \nAfter the presentation\, Eric will be available for signing copies of his book which are available for purchase in the museum’s gift shop\, the Scandia Butik. \n  \nEric Dregni is an associate professor of English at Concordia University in St. Paul. He is the author of several books\, including Midwest Marvels (2006)\, In Cod We Trust: Living the Norwegian Dream (2008)\, and Never Trust a Thin Cook (2009)\, all published by the University of Minnesota Press. During the summer\, he is the dean of the Italian Concordia Language Village in northern Minnesota. He lives in Minneapolis.  \nPraise for Vikings in the Attic  \n“Vikings in the Attic\, for all its humor and laughter-generating incongruities\, is a serious book\, raising important issues of national identity.” —Nordic Notes  \n  \n“Vikings in the Attic is serious and fun and full of little Scandinavian insights.”\n—Chicago Tribune  \n  \n“As in past books\, Dregni provides relaxed\, humorous\, and expert guidance as he reveals new and unexpected truths about familiar terrain.” —Minnesota History  \n  \n“Dregni’s survey is a serious and interesting exploration of why Scandinavians settled in the Upper Midwest.” —Star Tribune  \n  \n“This is a hugely enjoyable book that has plenty of history decked out in entertaining fashion.” —Flyoverland  \n  \n“Dregni is now the ‘go to guy’ on Minnesota quaint.” —Metro Lutheran  \n  \n“While I expected this book to be entertaining\, I was surprised by how informative it was in terms of the social and political contributions of Scandinavians\, from their founding of co-ops to being major players in socialist and communist parties in America\, as well as their influence on unions\, the suffragist movement\, and Midwest and national politics.”\n—Marquette Monthly
