Autumn is the perfect time of year to visit Nome Schoolhouse! Take a break from regular routines to surround yourself with bright colors, fun conversation and creative energy. Learn to felt for the first time or enhance your skills as you “paint with wool”.

Create a whimsical wool painting in this new Felt-a-Chicken Class! Ideal for beginners or anyone who has felted before. All materials are provided and you will be guided through every step of this project.

Class starts at 6pm. Come early if you would like to grab a deliciously prepared meal in our dining room prior to class. Class concludes at 8:30pm. Food is not included in the cost of class registration.
