Take inspiration from Tomte’s journey into the magical realm of ASI’s holiday exhibit, Tomte Tales: Legends of Winter, and make a sweet little woolly tomte and critter friend ready for imaginative play. In this intergenerational needle felting class, felter Jen will lead kids and their special adults through the process of shaping and decorating a pocket-sized tomte (Scandinavian gnome) and an accompanying creature using the magical technique of needle felting. Using a needle to poke colorful wool into place is a fun and easy craft for all ages. Children and their adults will work side-by-side on their projects throughout class. Intergenerational program: This program is for one kid and one adult to attend together, and each work on their own projects. Please reach out if you wish to confirm available space for additional children to attend with a registered adult. Skill level: Open to all skill levels. Ages: This program is for children ages 9-17 and an adult. A $25 materials fee covers materials for two projects, one for the adult and one for the child.
