Description
We offer full day mini-sessions of classes for kids aged 5-11 when they are on break from school - even one day camps! In these classes, students explore subjects such as weaving, sewing, embroidery, printing, felting, and dyeing. Each day is dedicated to a textile process with time for outdoor play.
Each Mini Camp costs $145* per day. Drop-off is at 9am and pick-up is at 5pm. Please supply your child with lunch and two snacks. Space is limited.
At Textile Arts Center we strive to provide empowerment through knowledge, and create a collaborative and inspiring experience. This philosophy is at the heart of our Youth Programs. Here, we appreciate the unique values of textile arts and want to expand opportunities for new practitioners to engage with the medium. Experiential learning is the foundation of our model and enables students of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels to make meaningful contributions to a growing community of fiber artists.

At TAC, we aspire to unite the textile community and advocate for the handmade by providing accessible, skills-based classes that reinvigorate engagement with traditional crafts. Techniques like weaving, sewing, and dyeing are practical, connective, and process-driven—common denominators around the world. They are part of our collective history and vital to our ongoing expressions of design, art, and culture.
