On Friday, Carter Watts ‘25 returned to the Design Center to teach a hands-on weaving workshop inspired by her woven pieces in the Weaving Dreams exhibit. It was the perfect study break, and a chance to consider how contemporary quilting and weaving relate to ancestral practices.

The Archives is excited to announce the Círculo Hispano Collection (BC37-41). Processed by Gabriela Ogando Ortega, the collection features publications and a scrapbook from El Círculo Hispano—a former Barnard-led club dedicated to exploring Hispanic life, culture, & literature.

Every month we highlight a different theme that can be studied or enjoyed in the zine library. Given the weather ups and downs of this spring, we thought weather in zines might be fun to explore. We love this zine about weather balloons:⛈️A Brief History of Balloons in Science🎈
