Calling all aspiring weavers! This program introduces kids to the timeless craft of textiles. With wool, linen and hemp, the Mabees could weave the many fabrics that adorned themselves and their home. We’ll explore all these materials and the historic tools used to process them. We’ll weave our own bookmarks to take home.

Admission is free for Family+ members of SCHS, otherwise $10 for kids 5 and over. Younger siblings are welcome at no charge, as are parents/caregivers.

Parents/caregivers must remain with their child for the duration of the program. This is not a drop-off event.
