Join textile artist Molly Hall for a fun fundraiser project to raise funds and awareness for the Radiate Art Space Mural Project. Molly will take you through the steps of creating your own beautiful 2D barn quilt work of art using needle felting techniques. Whether you are a beginner or experienced felter, participants will discover the magic of “painting” with wool fibers. Felting is a great way to unwind and encourage your creativity – come have some fun! No experience necessary!

In this workshop you will learn:

Overview of needle felting tools & materials.
How to blend colors and add decorative embellishments.

Cost includes all materials & an assortment of colors/designs will be available. Participants will go home with a needle felted piece on a piece of 8 x 8 inch felt, ready to be framed.

Age Group(s): Adults & Kids 8+ (Under 12 accompanied by an adult)
Please be advised that needle felting requires the use of very sharp needles & manual dexterity.

Radiate Art Space Murals are the result of a collaborative process. This year's theme of "Quilts and Barn Quilts" was met with creativity by many artists, including students from Richmond area school programs. The quilts are a vibrant addition of color to our Town Center building.
The Sunflower Mural (cover image) was designed by Tim Schonholtz & painted by Sally Vargo, Bailee Montgomery-Noel & Kyle Montgomery. Sunflower is an adaption of a very popular, traditional and familiar barn quilt reminding us of the beauty of nature.
