Jamestown  (CSi)  The Jamestown Arts Center  is offering a Fiber Weaving Class with Sue Balcom on November 9th from 12:00 – 3:30.
On Thursday’s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2 Arts Center Director, Mindi Schmitz said, the class teaches how to wrap a small loom; some vernacular and how to go about deciding on equipment and your very own loom. Everyone will have a chance to weave and the scarf will be given away to a lucky winner at the end of the evening. PLEASE do not purchase a loom until you speak to the instructor. If you already have a loom, please bring it to class with some yarn to add to our scarf project (optional). This class is ideal of beginning weavers, and hopes to set participants on a broader weaving journey. $40 / $35 for members.

Sue Balcom is a well-known name around North Dakota and beyond for her fiber arts (but, it doesn’t stop there). She is the owner of the Root Sellers Farm, is a blogger, author of four books, farmer’s marketer, fabric artist, self-described bread head. She is also a frequent guest on Prairie Public Radio’s “Main Street” to talk about community, family, and culinary traditions of North Dakota.
