A Little at a Time: Needle Felting

Service Description

The Crafternoon Series are classes constructed to engage adult artists with a variety of artmaking techniques and mediums in a supportive and social setting. Each session will feature a different theme and coordinated project, materials, or art method to accompany the theme. During our class, "A Little at a Time," artists will shut out the outside world by tuning in to something small and tangible, creating a needle felted object. Using a special felting needle and natural colored wools, we will form and shape tiny tidbits of a bigger world. Artists will learn how to construct the uber cute features and facets of a chosen form. The repetitive poking and prodding during the felting process will help you find a sense of zen among the turmoil. We will explore this unique artmaking method while enjoying the company of others and an optional beverage from the local establishment. All skill levels are welcome. Location: Purpose Brewing and Cellars in Fort Collins in the "barrel room" behind the bar from 6-8pm. Cost: $50, which includes the materials for an totable felted figure and some tools to do it at home. Additional supplies will be available for purchase.
