Textural Tapestry Weaving with Leigh Oviatt

Join fiber artist Leigh Oviatt in the historic studio of artist Olive Rush for an introduction to frame-loom weaving. In this 3-hour class, participants will be encouraged to explore texture, color, and design with a variety of materials to choose from. Learn the fundamental elements of weaving including how to set up a loom, while also being encouraged to play and experiment. Participants will create a beautiful 5” x 8” textural tapestry to take home, plus leave with materials to continue your weaving practice at home. Instruction covers tapestry design, working with color, and techniques for creating rich, dynamic textures. Register in advance at www.oliverush.org/events
