Nature-Inspired Needle Felting Class:
A needle felting class for all levels, creating a beautiful spring & nature-inspired felted artwork out of soft wool fibers. Felting is the process of matting, condensing, and compressing wool fibers together. Using special barbed felting needles, tufts of wool can be layered and assembled to form soft pictures and imagery. With colorful wool "roving" you will create a 5x7" landscape artwork to be placed in a matted 8x10 frame.
All supplies provided, including reference imagery and frame/matte.

Adults (age 15+) • $45

Custom Lino-Cut Printmaking Class:
Join us for an engaging art class exploring the expressive medium of linocut printmaking. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to carve your own design into a linoleum block, apply ink, and create striking prints on paper! The design can be your choice; reference photos of nature, animals, and scenery will be provided. This class covers the fundamentals of carving techniques, inking, and hand-printing, while encouraging experimentation with pattern, texture, and composition.
Block printing, also called Lino-cut, is extremely satisfying with ‘you-can’t-go-wrong’ results! For artists at any level-- you’ll love this! The water-based ink dries quickly and finished pieces will be ready to take home with you at the end of class. Come ready to unleash your creativity and leave with a series of your own original prints!
All supplies are provided, including reference imagery.
