Description
Watermark Art Center announces upcoming classes for adults, children
On March 29-30, learn how to make felted stones with instructor Lisa Jordan. Felted stones make unique and natural fiber art objects that have a pleasing weight in the hand. Creating them is often a meditative process. In the first session, held March 29 from 5 - 7 p.m., attendees will learn to wet-felt soft wool around a stone to make a seamless felted surface on which to stitch. Each person will make 2-3 felted stones of their own. Stones will be provided, but attendees are encouraged to bring a special rounded stone of their own if they would like (no bigger than palm size). In the second session, held March 30 from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m., attendees will learn some tricks to stitching on this non-traditional surface. Some basic knowledge of embroidery stitches is helpful but not required. You must attend both days. Minimum age is 12. Cost is $45, plus an $8 materials fee.
Registration for each of these classes, along with further details, can be found at watermarkartcenter.org. Watermark Art Center is a member-supported nonprofit dedicated to encouraging the growth and development of art. They are located at 505 Bemidji Ave N.
