Turn Wool into Wow at BCM!
Adult Wet Felting Workshop, Sunday, April 19, 2 p.m.
Looking for a new hobby or a fun way to spend time with friends? Behringer-Crawford Museum invites adults to get creative at a Wet Felting Workshop on Saturday, April 19, at 2 p.m.
Led by BCM Education Director Kim Gehring-Cook, this hands-on experience introduces participants to the art of wet felting, a technique that transforms soft wool fibers into a durable, textured fabric using water and simple tools. With step-by-step guidance, guests will create their own approximately 9-by-9-inch wool-felted landscape to take home.
Designed for ages 18 and up, the workshop is limited to 12 participants to ensure a personalized experience. The cost is $45 for museum members and $65 for nonmembers. To register, call (859) 491-4003 or visit https://www.eventbrite.com/o/43092610413. Museum members must call to receive the discounted rate.
