Fall University Day: All About Wool

We are repeating our popular day-long education program this fall with a focus on all things wool. Celebrate this amazing fiber with classes on all kinds of techniques. Hear lectures, watch demonstrations, enjoy a tasty lunch, and view our current exhibit, Sheared Delights.

Keynote speaker at 9 a.m. will be Sandy De Master. Her topic is “My Life’s Journey with Wool.”

A fiber arts fashion show, featuring extraordinary knitted wearables and more, takes place after lunch, from 12:15 to 1 p.m.

Take four one-hour demonstration classes, or investigate one craft in detail with a three-hour class.
