Barn Blast 11/18/11 – Celebrate the Artist Series

Heidi Trapp

Watch live artists at work at the museum during regular business hours. Heidi Trapp, above, will be working on embellished quilts Nov. 30-Dec. 4. She’ll be joined that week by handbag diva Deanna Peterson and fiber artists of the Cream City Rug Hookers, who will let you try your hand at that craft as well as demonstrate how they dye wool and make a pattern. Susan Wurl will be there, too, demonstrating her needle felting techniques. Future artists include:

Dec. 7-11, Nancee Ariagno and Norma Klimpke

Dec. 14-28, JoAnne Meyer and Marla Morris-Kennedy

Calling All Girl Scouts

The Museum Gift Shop has a selection of Girl Scout fabric prints, perfect for your troop crafts (or for a quick holiday gift for a Girl Scout fan on your list). Fat quarters as well as full yardage are available. Ask our gift shop volunteers about links to fun project ideas!
