Fabric Collage Workshop at Garden Spot Village Community

Description

We will kick off this two-day workshop with a brief discussion and examples shown prior to beginning our own hands-on experience of creating fabrics and collage. Participants will learn and explore clamping and resist techniques with fabric to create patterns and new surfaces through color removal. Students will utilize their created fabric to make a no-sew fabric collage.

You will be utilizing chemicals like bleach and vinegar to transform fabric and will be given gloves to wear along with safety demonstrations. We will work in water and will be using binder clips and other items to clamp our fabric materials. We will get a little messy! Workshop participants may bring beads, yarn, string, etc. that they may want to incorporate as embellishment.

The class will meet at Garden Spot Village Community Campus located at 433 S Kinzer Ave, New Holland, PA 17557. Information about class check-in procedures and location on Garden Spot Village’s campus will be sent after registration.

Notes: This is a two-hour class that will involve sitting and standing. Please wear non-precious shoes and clothing or an apron or smock. Make sure you wear comfortable clothing that can get messy. Feel free to bring a notebook for taking notes.

This course must meet minimum enrollment by April 6 in order to run. Register today!
