Though largely and justifiably regarded as "the patron saint" of Social Work and settlement houses, Jane Addams is merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Chicago's role in the evolution of these vital services. Several generations of 19th&nbsp;century women contributed mightily to the advancement of the human experience and the rise of Chicago's place in the growth of social services. Historian Clarence Goodman identifies these heroines and the significant impact of their good work.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;NSSC Members $15 / Non-Members $20

The North Suburban NeedleArts Guild’s next general meeting is
Tuesday October 6, 2026 at 9:30am both in-person and as a virtual
hybrid meeting. Guests are welcome. There is no charge for first
time guests to this meeting. If you are a guest who wants to attend
virtually please contact us via our website so a link for the meeting
can be sent to you. If you plan to attend in person the
meeting/lecture is being held at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church 1133
Pfingsten Rd. Northbrook, IL 60062. Our guest lecturer is Ren
LaDassor. 



Ren LaDassor has worked in the textile industry for over 30 years.
She has worked in TV, Film, and Broadway, and now the majority of her
time is spent on textile art. She is an Arkansas native and earned
her BFA in costume design from the University of North Carolina
School of the Arts. She then spent her 20s working in New York City.
She now lives in Madison, Wisconsin, and works as a textile artist,
graphic designer and costume designer. 
 
Ren’s body of
work uses fiber and wood to capture intimate portraits of the random
perfection of nature. She strives to manifest the perfection of a
woodland scene and lock it into a permanent art form, in a way a
photograph cannot. Influenced by her home in the University of
Wisconsin Arboretum in Madison, she looks out over the forest every
day, watching it morph, blossom, thrive and fade. Using wood from
felled trees, driftwood or other forest detritus, she creates
preserved specimens of nature. The artistry is finding the balance
between the regular and irregular. Her goal is to recreate the messy
chaos of wooden decay and plant growth and she encourages the viewer
to look closely and witness every stitch. 



Ren’s lecture is titled “Moss as Muse” and will focus on her
career in the fiber arts beginning in television and Broadway in the
highly collaborative arts, to solo artist, and now back to
collaborative arts as a teacher. It will include anecdotes of how her
art came to be, and, getting to know her art through the naming
process. Stories of public reaction to her art will also be included.



After the meeting on Tuesday October 6, 2026 and running through
October 8, 2026 there will be an in-person workshop with Ren titled
“Sculptural Moss Embroidery” held at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church. 
If you are interested in this workshop you can get more information
and/or sign up on our website. The cost of the workshop is $200.00
for guild members and $220.00 for nonmembers. For further
