Upcoming Workshops & Events

Stuffed Vessels— an Adventure into Dimensional Fiber Sculpture with Vicki Assegued

Sunday, July 5th, 2026 from 11am to 4pm

You'll start by building a stuffed shape, covering it with a foundation of beautiful fabrics, and then having a wonderful time decorating and developing it. You'll learn to make a variety of fun shapes and parts to attach to your vessel, adding texture and dimension. You can build a base and a top, shaped as you choose it to be. This workshop is packed with learning many techniques for going all out with decorating and embellishing your art, which can include all kinds of wrapping and making of various objects to hang on your piece, as well as tassels, fringe, pompoms, and so much more.

$130 (all materials included)
