This workshop is presented in partnership with the Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania.

VIRTUAL 3-Hour WorkshopContemporary Craft is thrilled to once again partner with the Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania, and instructor Erin Carlson, to offer three Virtual Needle Felted Bird workshops in the new year. Choose one, two, or three birds and spend your chilly winter months felting from the comfort of your own home. Date: Saturday, February 26, 2022Time: 10am-1pm ESTDescription: Learn to needle felt (or sharpen your skills) while creating your own Blue Jay. Fiber artist and backyard bird enthusiast Erin Carlson will guide you through the needle felting process as you look closely to observe the shape and markings of the species while an Audubon educator provides additional facts and information. A perfect blending of art and science! The workshop begins with instruction on needle felting your bird. Once you are underway with your project, an educator from Audubon Society will share wonderful insights about the Blue Jay. Then we will rejoin our instructor, Erin, who will help you finish your bird. Nature’s alarm system
