Queer Craft Circle

Wet Felting Wool

To celebrate Pride Month we are bringing Queer Craft Circle to Clemens Mill!

Join us for this fun, casual program. Together we will explore a new creative project with a guest artist each month. Registration is limited to 2SLGBTQ+-identifying people in the Waterloo Region. This month we will be exploring wet felting wool with Michael Rouse and Peter van Ryn. In this workshop, you’ll create a vase or bowl that displays your personality and creativity through shape, colour, and decoration. Felted vessels are unique decorative pieces and can also be functional for storage and organization. This workshop is open to everyone, from the inexperienced crafter to the experienced creator and all materials are provided.

About the instructors: Michael and Peter are excited to return to the Queer Craft Circle after great time last February demonstrating needle felting. They showcase their needle felted and wet felted wool creations through woolwaterneedle and are inspired by nature to create work that is decorative and allows viewers to bring their own narrative to a piece. Recently Peter has been focusing on felted paintings of farm buildings of Southwestern Ontario. Michael is often in the studio creating custom pet portraits in wool. You can learn more about woolwaterneedle by visiting their website.

This program is offered in partnership with Spectrum, Waterloo Region’s Rainbow Community Space.
