Felting Friends
Create soft, cuddly creatures with wool and your imagination!
Join in to make tiny friends using the art of felting! Kids will learn the basics of felting needlework, safety, and shaping to make adorable animals. Use your fibers to interpret the animal of the week, or create something that is entirely from your imagination. Come to one session or come to all!
1 Your Guide
As a scientist, I LOVE exploring and learning through hands-on experimenting! Planting seeds and sprouts and watching them grow is one of my favourite things to do. I am an active learner and am currently participating in my MEd, my fourth university degree. I have worked with the Ontario Science Centre, Science North, and as a grade 7 and 8 classroom teacher for many years - all great places to try new things. I believe staying curious is the most important thing people can do!
I like taking pictures of plants, animals, water and sky, then use them to create fun works of art using glass, wood or paint!
