2026 October Workshop – Registration now open

Wrapping Wild Workshop – October 17-18

Presented by Bryant Holsenbeck

We will use repurposed, scavenged materials and wire to make wild animals! Students will begin with a mammal. Next, we will learn the basics of making a bird. Techniques of random weave and wrapping will be discussed. The best thing you can bring to this class is wide-open expectations. 

Bryant Holsenbeck began her arts career as a basket maker. Since that time she has evolved into an environmental artist who makes large-scale installations that document the waste stream of our society. She has shown her work and taught throughout the United States and Australia. She has been the recipient of 2 North Carolina Arts Council Fellowships, a Project Grant and an NEA Arts and Learning Grant that she worked on in collaboration with the Chapel Hill Public Arts Commission.

The Original Diversified Plain Weave

presented by Vila Cox

Registration opens in early November

This round-robin workshop explores the original Diversified Plain Weave (DPW) as presented in Klara Cherapov’s 1972 monograph.  Participants will weave samples and explore the effect color and yarn selection have on DPW.  Discover the elements that make designs stand out.  Learn to convert six-shaft patterns into DPW and modify existing drafts using Fiberworks.
