Weaving – October 2023

October 5, 2023 - October 8, 2023

Multiple weaving classes will be offered concurrently and student starting times will be staggered on the first day.  You will be asked to select which workshop you’d like to register for on the registration page. Please view the descriptions on the “Weaving Workshops” page and note that we do not teach rigid heddle during this workshop!

The prerequisite for all workshops, EXCEPT beginning weaving, is a beginning weaving class in which you have warped and woven on a harness loom. There is no prerequisite for the beginning class. Workshop fee is $360 plus project materials. In addition, a $15 fee is payable to the instructor for the workshop learning guide. A $90 non-refundable, non-transferable deposit will be due at the time of registration to confirm your space.  The remainder of your fee will be paid at the conclusion of your workshop. (Fees are only refunded if an event is canceled by the Fiber Garden. Thank you for understanding.)

COVID-19 policy: We continue to monitor the status of the pandemic and continue to take precautions to keep guests safe. Until further notice, all participants in Fiber Garden-hosted events are required to show proof of full vaccination, including at least one booster, to participate. There may be additional protocols implemented to ensure maximum safety of participants. By registering for a Fiber Garden-sponsored event, you agree to comply with any established guidelines. COVID-19 protocols are subject to change at any time as public health guidance is updated. Please understand that the Fiber Garden is also my personal home. For 25+ years it has been a place of retreat and creative space for many. It must also be a place of safety, for you and for me.

The weaving workshops listed below will be offered during this class. You will be asked to select which workshop you’d like to register for on the registration page. There is no prerequisite for Beginning Weaving.
