Shelburne Craft School

This three-day workshop offers an opportunity to weave with abandon, following the directions of instinct, whimsy, and one’s own uniquely creative expression. Do you have sticks, stones, fabrics, or papers you’ve been hanging onto because you know they’d be beautiful in something? This is the class where they might find their place!

Students need not have any weaving experience to explore the boundaries of warp and weft. We will be using a variety of frame and circular looms to create one of a kind pieces that embody the weaver and this “once in a blue moon” moment. The only requirement will be to come ready to play and break some rules.

How will this workshop be organized?

Each day we will meet from 10am - 4pm. We will be able to work both inside and out (weather depending). Weavers can bring lunch/snacks each day or can access the local markets/restaurants or the Shelburne Farmer’s Market on Saturday that runs from 9am - 1:30pm. Lunch breaks will hover around 12:30. There is a refrigerator, microwave, and tea kettle available for use.

On Sunday, we will roll into our third day of weaving together with the Full Blue Moon energy as our guide. There will be also be some time of reflection on how we’d like to harness our creative energy throughout the summer months.
