time
10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Get inspired by the From the Heart, Made by Hand: Treasures from the Women of Sweden exhibit and create your own hemslöjd (or home craft) work of art! Choose from two different workshop options; create a wall hanging on a rigid heddle loom with Philadelphia Guild of Hand Weavers or learn the basics of wheat weaving and make a plait design with Linda Beiler. Space is very limited for each class, so make sure to sign up in advance, either by calling the museum or signing up online using the link below. $30 member, $35 non-member.

Update: The wall hanging on a rigid heddle loom with Philadelphia Guild of Hand Weavers workshop is sold out. We still have a few more spots for the basics of wheat weaving and plait design class with Linda Beiler.
