Saturday, July 1 Natural Weaving with Caroline Smith
A craft practiced in communities across a myriad of cultures, weaving is traditionally practiced in the community and allows weavers to tell a story with every weft, or infuse some magic into each thread. We’ll go over beginner patterns and methods, and look at a few different styles of looms that weavers have used throughout history, dating back to the Neolithic period.
Families are encouraged to register early to guarantee a place in a workshop. While the class is complimentary, be sure to RSVP as space is limited! Secure your spot today!
