Create a unique piece of art out of locally sourced alpaca fiber at Needlefelt Penguin on Saturday, Nov. 8 from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. in The Studio.
Stephanie Block of Sundrop Alpacas will walk students through the needlefelting process to make a penguin, which can be customized to make them look authentic, whimsical or anything in between. The class is perfect for those wanting to learn a new art form.
Take advantage of a fun opportunity to bring a friend or family member for a $10 add-on fee as you work together on a single project kit!
$65/person* + $10/person for add-on (limit one). Register at https://allerton.illinois.edu/events/needlefelt-penguin/. Registration will close Nov. 1 or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.
*A $15 discount is available during registration for those who bring their own needlefelting tools.
If you will need disability-related accommodations to participate, please email Olivia Bunting at owarren@illinois.edu.
