LEARN HOW TO WEAVE, CUSTOMIZE TOTE BAGS, AND WATCH A PERFORMANCE OF MYTHICAL FOLKLORE
The Lancaster Museum of Art and History (MOAH) is pleased to announce the inaugural MOAH Fest, a dynamic celebration of art, community, and cultural expression. Join us on Sunday, June 29th, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM
for a day of interactive workshops and a compelling performance, all inspired by the themes explored in MOAH's current exhibition m\other.
With a focus on fiber and textile art, m\other challenges dominant narratives surrounding matriarchy and femininity by offering expansive interpretations of what it can mean to "mother." The exhibition highlights practices rooted in queer, Indigenous, and spiritual perspectives on care, creation, and reliance; themes that are echoed and embodied throughout MOAH Fest.
