About this plan
A hand-stitched flag changed a woman's fate in the 19th century. Mariana Pineda lost her life for embroidering the words Liberty, Equality, and Law onto fabric. Her story moved Federico García Lorca, who turned her into a symbol of rebellion and love.
The Costurero Puntada de Palabras comes to Biblioteca Pública Venecia to share that story with anyone who wants to listen. The session mixes readings from Lorca, a talk about embroidery as a form of resistance, and a hands-on activity where you create your own symbolic piece.
It is a free plan in Bogotá, made for people who love literature, textile art, and stories with historical weight. If you like intimate and unusual workshops, this date is worth your time.
