Fiber and Foliage. An Artisan\'s Row Event.

Come exchange knowledge and skills with fellow enthusiasts.  Whether it\'s spinning, weaving, knitting, braiding, herbcraft, gardening, basketry, dyeing, baking, or anything else related to Fiber or Foliage, you will find kindred spirits, learn new techniques, and even might look at an old craft in a new way!

If you do anything with Fiber or Foliage, come on out, bring your tools and supplies, and enjoy a full day of free-form camaraderie.

If you are interested in any of this, please come!  You don\'t have to already be an artisan- we are happy to teach and to entice you in to our soft and verdant world...

Arts & Sciences Activities:  The whole day is devoted to Arts& Sciences, in an Artisan\'s Row format. There are no specific classes, thus you don\'t have to worry about the things you\'re most interested in all happening at the same time.

Site Restrictions:  Site opens at 9 and closes at 6. This is a dry site.

Feast Information:  There will be a fundraiser lunch.

Other Information:  We will have 2 large halls within the church, and a few smaller rooms so that we can group related interests. There is a well-appointed kitchen we can use for food-grade substances.  We will also have a large pavilion outside to accommodate natural dyeing, soapmaking, and other activities too smelly or messy to be done indoors. We will supply propane tanks for things that need outdoor cooking. The church\'s parking lot is not large, but there is street parking along the sides and front of the church.
