Description:

The Active Studio is a program geared towards older adults. In this session, we will be weaving on reusable cardboard looms, which guests will take home at the end of the workshop. Each guest will create their own loom, then add on woven layers of cotton thread, twine, and soft yarns—interspersed throughout recycled and reclaimed textiles. This craft is easy for all ages to complete and is a fun way to celebrate clothes and textiles that are no longer useable (but still dear to us). The best part? Crafters can finish their weavings at home and take home their looms at the end of the session!

This program is supported by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian.
