SCULPTURAL FELTING
Stephanie Metz
Class #72: Sunday, August 5, 10am-4pm
Tuition $126
You may know that felt is a non-woven textile made of wool, but have you considered its sculptural possibilities? Using simple tools you can manipulate wool to create three-dimensional, free-standing, solid felt sculpture.
This class will teach you an innovative use of a humble and inexpensive material that is bound to energize your art-making. This one-day workshop is a thorough introduction to the tools, processes, and possibilities of needle-felting. Class includes hands-on practice, discussion, demonstrations, and slides. Participants will complete a small project to get familiar with the concepts central to this unusual art form, and leave with the skills and knowledge to translate their ideas into felt.
