Textile Arts Summer Camp
July 31 @ 9:00 am – 1:00 pm
The Textile Arts camp is designed for students who have completed grade 3 through age 17.
Students should pack a lunch and beverage.
During the five-day camp, students will choose what color to dye a skein of yarn for a weaving project, and learn how to dye the yarn. They will each make a unique potholder to take home, and also learn about methods of felting wool. They will use “wet felting” to create a useful felted container. They will learn “needle felting” and create their own needle-felted name tag or decorative pin.
Over the course of two or three days, students will work on their major weaving project. Using individual table looms, students will create a beautiful infinity scarf or cowl with their own dyed yarn.
All materials are included in the camp fee, and each student will take home their completed projects.
