Classes

I am passionate about tapestry weaving, and equally passionate about passing on what I know. Below is my 2023 teaching schedule (so far.)

Community Weaving

All are welcome to sit at an over-sized loom and contribute to a communal tapestry. Weave as much or as little as you like – even if you’ve never woven before because I’ll be there to get you started.
