2:00 pm @ San Antonio Public Library, Auditorium

In San Antonio, Texas, IFF Director Margaret Wertheim will present a public lecture on the Crochet Coral Reef project for the 2015 McMahon Fiber Symposium at the San Antonio Public Library. Held in conjunction with the opening of a major Crochet Coral Reef exhibition at the Southwest School of Art, Wertheim’s presentation will explore intersections between art, craft, mathematics, community practice and the environmental crisis facing reefs worldwide.

This lecture will also kick-off the making of a San Antonio Satellite Reef, in which citizens of Texas will construct their own southwestern-inspired crochet coral landscape.
