About this plan
Can you picture embroidering the sounds of old Bogotá? The Senior Club at Arborizadora Alta Public Library hosts a special workshop to close your eyes and travel through the neighborhood's audio memory. The event is part of World Strange Music Day and brings older adults together to recover those noises from the past that almost no one remembers.
The idea is simple and lovely. Each participant recalls sounds like the night watchman's whistle, rain falling on tin roofs, or street vendor calls, then translates them into embroidery patterns on fabric. Colored thread by colored thread, moons, musical notes, and local words appear stitch by stitch.
It is a free plan designed for community sharing. If you enjoy neighborhood culture, crafts, or simply want to hear stories from another Bogotá, this gathering may speak to you.
