Tramando: Collective Making, Continued Traditions
Tramando is a community-based textile arts initiative that celebrates the power of making as a means of cultural preservation, creative expression, and collective growth. Rooted in Kensington’s rich textile history, the program brings together artists, culture bearers, and community members to learn, share, and sustain traditional textile practices across generations.
The works presented in this exhibition are the result of that collective journey. Each object reflects the hands that made it, the stories shared, and the knowledge and connections woven throughout the program.
We Will Not Hide:
Hidden Histories, Collective Voices,
and Creative Futures
As the United States marks its 250th anniversary in 2026, Taller Puertorriqueño proudly announces a yearlong series of exhibitions and programs offering critical, celebratory, and reflective perspectives from Puerto Rican and Afro-Latine communities.
