Studio Hours are for folks who have taken Textile Art Classes or Workshops at Oil & Cotton. If you have prior experience please communicate with me to arrange a tour.
If you're interested in learning how to use the studio, please consider taking a weekend workshop or weeknight class. Private lessons/instructions can be scheduled.
There are still seats available in the upcoming Spinning Workshop. The focus will be on making wool yarn with hand held spindles. We will, as always, talk at great length about history, women’s work in textiles and other subjects.
Also, plan to join us for a monthly Gathering in the Studio for conversation and time to work on our own projects. Not a stitch and bitch, not make-and-take, but a chance to Plop Down and Make Something.
