SUMMARY:Made by You: Japanese Boro Textile Stitching
DESCRIPTION:Made by You: Japanese Boro Textile Stitching is a hands-on introduction to the Japanese art of visible mending\, transforming fabric scraps into a one-of-a-kind stitched textile. \nThis workshop introduces participants to boro\, a centuries-old Japanese textile tradition where worn or mended fabric is patched and stitched together. Participants will look at boro’s history and the philosophy behind it\, including the idea of wabi-sabi\, finding beauty in imperfection and visible signs of use. Then\, the workshop will teach foundational hand-stitching techniques\, including running stitch and simple patch attachment\, before designing their own layout using a mix of provided fabric scraps. Everyone will leave with a stitched textile piece of their own and a working knowledge of a technique they can keep building on at home. \nThis class is for beginners of all skill levels\, ages 10+\, all supplies provided. However\, participants are welcome to bring fabric scraps from home with personal meaning (an old shirt\, a worn pair of jeans\, fabric with sentimental value) to incorporate into their piece. \nThis workshop will take place outdoors at the Hub RTP stage. In the event of unfavorable weather\, we do have an indoor backup plan. Due to the small-scale format of this project\, each participant needs to purchase their own ticket in advance.

SUMMARY:Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show
DESCRIPTION:The long-running Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show is celebrating North Carolina’s storied barbecue culture when it returns to the NC State Fairgrounds September 18-20 by bringing in legacy barbecue names and pitmasters to teach (and feed) audiences their craft. \nThe three-day show brings together hundreds of local experts in home improvement in one place and picks up where online research leaves off – by providing real world advice specific to each individual project. Guests can check out the latest home improvement products\, get advice from presenters on the Fresh Ideas Stage\, participate in interactive workshops and at this show – taste world-class barbecue from industry legends. \nJust in time for tailgate season\, the Fairgrounds Ideal Home Show is rounding up some of the biggest names in North Carolina barbecue to share trade secrets and samples. \nPitmaster Ryan Mitchelll appears at the show on Saturday\, September 19 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Ryan was born and raised in a barbecue family as the son of Ed Mitchell\, well-known for Eastern North Carolina whole hog barbecue. Long before the Pitmaster fame Ryan could be found by the side of his grandparents\, Willie and Doretha Mitchell\, day in and day out helping out in their small corner store off 301 HWY in Wilson. \nAfter high school\, Ryan attended East Carolina University to pursue his dreams of playing college football and earning a degree in economics. He spent eight years working in commercial and investment banking for some of the nation’s largest firms before he re-evaluated his professional life and decided it time to leave his 60 hour a week desk job and return to his roots and passion. \nIn addition to Ryan\, another third generation NC pitmaster – Sam Jones will be onstage on Friday\, September 18 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. The Sam Jones legacy began with Sam’s grandad\, Peter Jones\, who opened the Skylight Inn in 1947 at age 17. Sam Jones is known for Eastern Carolina barbecue and chopped whole hog barbecue.
