You won't just be creating beautiful advanced fiber creations; we'll show you how to take your small batch fiber arts collection from one-offs to repeatable basics. Using advanced techniques in fibers including weaving, wet felting, and crochet, you'll have chic pieces ready for craft tok! From conceptualizing a catchy name to crafting a captivating logo and designing eye-catching packaging, our Artpreneurs will experience the thrill of turning fibers into a brand sensation while staying true to their creative expression.
Join us in a summer of creativity, skill-building, and entrepreneurial discovery. Let's make lasting memories, lifelong friendships, and beautiful crafts that are as unique as you are. It's time to explore, create, and thrive.
Fiber Arts (Grades 1-5)
Get ready to experience a universe of colors and textures as we go on a journey through the wonderful world of fiber arts. Yarn, fabric, threads, and fun all spun together make up this camp. After just one week, your child will create marvelous handmade crafts that they’ll be proud to give as gifts, display as forever keepsakes or use in everyday life. From knitting to felting to embroidery to weaving, campers will learn a variety of fiber art techniques to create one-of-a-kind pieces. Campers can come back week after week or year after year to experience new themes, projects and of course continue to build on their fiber arts skills.
