Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

Learn to weave in this beginner's course, exploring traditional tapestry approaches such as interlocking, inlay, and shape-building alongside basket weave, twill, soumak, pile, rya, and twining techniques. Don't have a frame loom? No problem. Your instructor will walk you through building your own. You'll also deepen your understanding of weaving's relevance to material production, fine art, and craft through faculty-guided discussion and presentations. Presentations on contemporary handweavers supplement this studio experience. No experience is necessary.
