St. Lawrence College offers the most wonderful opportunities for arts enthusiasts during the summer months, and again this year, we will be offering two weeks of FIBRE ARTS focused arts courses at the Kingston Campus.
Students stay at the Campus Residences just across the parking lot from the classroom, and happily spend 6-8 hours Monday - Friday creating a luscious palette of beautifully personal fabrics as you explore all things fibre related as they explore multiple techniques:

TURNING POINT, Bethany Garner
We start the week with dyes - and create mountains of beautifully hand dyed and painted fabrics using both FLAT DYE and DYE PAINTED (thickened dyes) technique. The dyes will remain in the classroom all week for continuous dye work as the week progresses and time permits each artist to explore to his/her hearts content!
