Art- Learn to Weave

Have you ever wanted to try weaving on a loom? Well you can do just that when you sit down to a four-harness loom in the workshop at the Artists Hand Gallery, located right in downtown Indiana. There will be one, 5-hour class, offered in September, one 5-hour class offered in November and one 5-hour class offered in December. When you register for one of the 3 dates (Sept 16 OR Nov 18 OR Dec 16), you are only registering for ONE CLASS. If you would like to attend more than one class, you must complete the registration and pay the additional fee to participate in the class multiple times.
