The Art of Shearing
March 26, 2023
at Hill-Stead Museum
10:00 AM - 4:00 PM
An Interactive Celebration and Demonstration of All Things Fiber!
While our sheep are being shorn, Hill-Stead Museum will welcome fiber artists and vendors demonstrating skirting, carding, spinning, weaving, knitting, crocheting, felting; storytelling; and more. There will be free hayrides to and from the barns, food vendors, and craft activities.
Learn what it takes to create something “from sheep to shawl.” It’s a celebration—Join us!
