Join weaver Lisa Elliott and other fiber artists in the Marion Art Center Studio the last Tuesday of each month for a textile studio session. This is not a class but an opportunity to work on your own project next to other artists, share challenges, ideas and tips, show off projects (in process or completed) or ask for feedback. Enjoy the art-making process in a social setting and get inspired. Projects may include: knitting & Crochet; embroidery or hand stitching, rigid heddle loom (pre-warped) or tabletop weaving, Sashiko mending, needlepoint felting, fabric collage, spinning, small quilting projects, other handicraft projects.
The first meeting is scheduled on Tuesday, January 31 from 6:00-8:00pm. Space is limited to 10-12 people, and registration is recommended. Participants may bring snacks and beverages for themselves or for sharing, and the MAC will provide a hot water kettle for tea. The MAC gladly accepts cash donations of any size (suggested $5 donation or pay-what-you-can) to participate in this monthly group session to help cover the cost of utilities. To sign up, use the online form (visit marionartcenter.org/events) or email your name and phone number the MAC at info@marionartcenter.org with “Textile Tuesday” in the subject line.
