Wet Felted Vessel Workshop

In this class, participants will learn how to shape wool into a vessel, exploring shape and color and practicing play at every age!  Coriander Focus, summer artist-in-residence at the Peter Bullough Foundation will teach the basic principles of how to wet felt wool into playful shapes using interesting colors.  No previous experience with fiber arts is required. This workshop is perfect for anyone who wants to learn more about ways to use wool for both fine art and playful crafts!

This workshop will be held at Typewriter Studio at 127 S Braddock Street, Winchester - just around the corner from the PBF! The PBF is partnering with Typewriter Studio to hold workshops in a larger and more flexible space.

Coriander explores work that tells a story about how we relate to ourselves and our bodies using photography, poetry and multimedia art that frolics through the forest.
