"Learn about the artistic properties of wool and make your own needle-felted creation. Haydee Borrero of Sheepy Hollow Farm will guide participants through the process of manipulating wool fibers into a canvas. Then you can add designs using specialized tools as your paintbrush and colorful and texturally rich wool as your paint. The finished project will be two-dimensional, about the size of a postcard, and can be gifted, framed, or hung.

This workshop is beginner-friendly, but limited to participants 16 years and older due to use of sharp tools.

Space is limited; email eas8@cornell.edu to register."
