Textiles Techniques for Jewelry and Small Sculpture

Workshop Monday, September 21 – Wednesday, September 23, 2026 | 10:00am – 2:00pm (all three days)

Workshop Description

Textile techniques are traditionally worked with natural fibers. They can also be applied to metal. The techniques of twining, coiling and knitting can offer the opportunity to work in new ways with the familiar forms of sheet and wire. With these techniques, one can explore pattern, texture, structure and scale. In this workshop students will explore a variety of textile techniques and incorporate them into a piece of jewelry or small sculpture.
