What if you could draw without a pencil? In this colorful fiber-art workshop, fabric becomes your pencil and a giant grid becomes your canvas! Weave, loop, knot, and thread colorful fabric, ribbons, yarn, and more to create characters, shapes, words, imaginary landscapes, or whatever your imagination dreams up. Add to the lines and designs left by other young artists and watch as everyone’s creations connect and transform into one giant collaborative artwork. There’s no right or wrong way to create, just pick a textile, follow a line, and see where it takes you!

This event is a ticketed Create! featured workshop. All featured workshops require a free ticket to attend due to limited seating. Tickets may be picked up at the Info Booth in Children’s Alley; a standby line will be available for each workshop in the event a ticketed attendee does not show up.
