From Fleece to Fabric | Ranch Life Summer Series

From Fleece to Fabric | Ranch Life Summer Series

Discover how natural fibers have been transformed into useful items for ranch and home life for generations. Join fiber artist Joy Getha Saturday, Aug. 15, from 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM as she demonstrates the journey from raw wool and other natural fibers to finished textiles, sharing the history of spinning, weaving, and the many animals that provide fiber, including sheep and goats. Kids will get a hands-on opportunity to explore different fibers by touch and create their own small weaving to take home.
