SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:"Maya Weaving Demonstration"
DESCRIPTION:"\rIn conjunction with the Museum’s special exhibit of contemporary Maya textiles from Guatemala, guest artist Magda Sotz Mux will give two public weaving demonstrations. A resident of Chiq'a'l (San Juan Comalapa), Chimaltenango, Magda is recognized as a master weaver who continues the ancient Maya practice of weaving on a back-strap loom. Most of her work is done in the contemporary Chiq'a'l style, which incorporates traditional color schemes and geometric patterns as well as more modern counted patterns.\r\rOn April 12, Magda will begin a new piece by assembling and warping her loom in the Museum. On April 19, she will demonstrate how traditional brocading techniques are used when introducing design elements on a newly assembled loom. A Kaqchikel interpreter will be on hand for both demonstrations and will translate as Magda describes her weaving process and responds to questions and comments from museum visitors.\r"
