Color Creek in the Bridal Aisle at Make It Alaskan Festival

Schedule Update:  Teaser for October 1st Needlefelting has been moved to October 16th.  No Teaser this Thursday because Color Creek will be down at the Sullivan Arena setting up for the Make It Alaskan Show.  Color Creek along with fiber artists from around Alaska will be congregating in the Bridal Aisle with our created garments ready to walk the aisle.  Fashion shows are October 2nd, 4-6 pm; the 3rd & 4th, 2-4 pm. BOOTH #331 on the south east side of the arena. Cost is $6.00 for adults, children under 12 free.

Color Creek week reminder

Coming up this week

Teaser tonight. Thursday, 17th.  6:30-7:30.  Stamping on fabric.  Such a fun little hour of activity for those who want “just a little”.  $15.

Free-form Silk Painting.  Saturday, 19th, 1-4 pm.  Explore the wonder of creating without hard resist lines.  This is not advanced,  just a different perspective to painting on silk.  Bring your creativity, your old clothes and $45. (sorry, no credit cards)

Next Week

Intro to Batik. Wednesday 23rd, 6-9 pm.  Hot wax on fabric defines the design.  Stamp, blob, draw or dip layering lots of colors in between.  Lots of fun and I clean up the mess.  Speaking of which – make sure you have on old clothes.  We do make a mess!  $45. (sorry, no credit cards)
