Members of the community are invited to help weave an artistic bird’s-eye view of Centre Wellington on a traditional tapestry loom. Weaving will be guided by experienced weavers from the community, so no experience is necessary, just a desire to try colouring with wool yarn. Drop by to add your inch and watch the image build!

Weekends 11am to 3pm
Organizer
