Weaving Workshop

The Museum of Eastern Shore Culture is happy to present our latest workshop: Weaving. Learn how to warp a tapestry loom and work with different yarns, cords, fabric and fiber. Your instructor, curator of MESC and fiber artist, Raye-Valion Gillette takes you step by step – from the warp strings to the fringe – resulting in a one-of-a-kind art piece to hang in your home! The class is open to ages 16+.

• What if I can no longer attend?

We understand that unexpected situations arise and advance notice isn’t always possible. However, we kindly ask that you try to provide at least 24–48 hours’ notice for any refund requests or changes in attendance. Doing so allows us to reopen ticket availability and offer another participant the opportunity to join the class.

All workshops will begin promptly at the time listed on your ticket. We recommend arriving 5–10 minutes early to ensure a smooth check-in and allow our instructors to start the class on time.

If you have any further questions, please reach out to the museum operations coordinator, Alexandra Kean: amkean@salisbury.edu.
