Beginner Tapestry Weaving class on Sunday, September 10th, 2023, from 10:30am – 4:00 pm with juried artist Lisa Almeida. What to expect: In this class, you will learn the basics of how to create images with fiber using a simple tapestry loom. You will weave a tiny tapestry from start to finish and leave with your loom warped and ready to start a new project at home. Who should attend: Anyone interested in learning the foundational skills of tapestry weaving is encouraged to attend. If you’ve never touched a loom in your life, this class is for you. If you are an experienced hand-weaver, you will discover a new way to enjoy your loom. About the Instructor: Lisa Almeida discovered tapestry weaving in 2017. She was immediately captivated by the joy of creating images with fiber and has been weaving nearly every day since. She is a member and past Director of Exhibitions of the American Tapestry Alliance, and a juried member of the League of NH Craftsmen. Her work is sold and exhibited locally and nationally. Tuition is $135.00 per student, and the material fee is $40.00 Materials fee includes: A wooden tapestry lap loom with accessories (beater comb, shuttle stick and tapestry needles) – all of which you will keep. Enough cotton warp and wool to complete the class project and another like it at home. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Please contact the gallery at 603-279-7920 to register.
