Exploration and Hidden Treasures in Felt 
with Amy Burkard & Judith Mueller
Dates: Saturday April 18th and Sunday April 19th
Hours: 10 - 4pm
$225 for members
$250 for non members
All supplies are included.

Felting is an ancient art form that takes the elements of water, warmth and agitation to transform the raw material into fabric and form. As the main fibre is wool, not many examples have survived through time, but what has shows us the magic that is created when the different elements interact. Our workshop will explore the basics of the felting process with guided techniques to achieve textual and sculptural design elements. These techniques will be used around a 3D bowl form that the student will take home with them. Students will be encouraged to interact and make dramatic design decisions that will in turn stimulate your creative juices.


Please Contact the gallery to register
*to secure a spot register with a $50 deposit. Payment in full is required two weeks prior to workshop start date. ALSO please contact the gallery for more information if you are interested in two half-priced spots for students and seniors.
