Both experienced and beginner weavers are invited to learn and share design and technical skills while surrounded by the natural beauty of the New Brighton State Beach. While choosing fibers hand dyed by tapestry artist Doris Florig, you will capture the effects of weather and light which are otherwise difficult to produce in a studio.
Your fee covers the cost of the yarns used during the workshop. Doris supplies you with a loom for weaving on site. She has pre-warped the looms so you can begin weaving when you arrive. The warp is yours to take home. The looms and yarns will be available for purchase at the conclusion of the workshop.
