Independant Focus Weaving
Weavers of all skill levels are welcome to book a one, two, or three day weaving focus session, to work on a particular structure or fiber that has been of interest to the weaver. Four to eight shaft jack and counterbalance loom types are available to use. Wool, cotton, linen, and synthetic fibers are on hand to experiment with. The weaver is supported and mentored during the design, set-up, and weaving processes. For weavers who have demonstrated a commitment to weaving and working on a regular basis in the gallery, the fee is $100.00 per month for unlimited use of the weaving studio looms and tools. The weaver can provide their own fiber or are charged by the weight of the materials used from the weaving studio.
