À propos
Spend some quality time on Amherst Island learning about the fun art of needle felting. Cat Feraday-Miller, professor of animation from the Ontario College of Art and Design will be on site to teach you the basics as well as give you a special opportunity to experience her virtual reality game whereby her needle felted birds fly all around you in a virtual forest.
This fun filled afternoon will be held on the gallery deck, and her original felted birds will be on hand for you to view in real life as well as virtually.
Anyone and everyone is welcome, no previous experience necessary. There will be a limited number of supplies available for true beginners, but if you have had some experience with this art form, we would love to see you come with your own supplies and participate as well.
You are welcome to stay for one session or two. If staying for two sessions, there will be an hour break between them so please feel free to bring along a bag lunch.
This is an outdoor event; please be sure to dress for the weather!
Organisateur
Gallery Rossland Gardens Amherst Island
Located on the oldest farmstead on Amherst Island circa 1790, our retail gallery and botanical gardens are a destination unlike any other. With stunning views and rustic charm, visiting us is akin to journeying back in time, where the tradition of fine craftsmanship in wood, metal, fibre and glass arts are presented in original, contemporary ways.
