If you want to try your hand at weaving, here’s your chance at Balai Seni Maybank’s Threading Hope: A Maybank Women Eco-Weavers Exhibition, which runs until Dec 9.

Four Iban weavers from Rumah Gare in Sarawak will be at the gallery daily to showcase their skills on the loom and to answer any questions from visitors. You can even get some hand-on experience at weaving with the weavers showing you what to do.
