Learn to Needle Felt Chickadees

Join Jill Knuckles for a lovely afternoon of felting and go home with three lovely little birds.

Get inspiration for your workshop with a quick tour of the Alberta Craft Gallery - Calgary exhibition Albirda: Put a Bird On It. Then head upstairs for a beginner needle felting workshop and make your own art pieces.

Did you know three species of Chickadees can be found in Calgary and that a group of Chickadees is called a Banditry? For this class, you don't need to know any of that. But you will learn to make all three species: Black Capped, Mountain and Boreal Chickadee.

Join Jill Nuckles (BFA ’99, Sculpture) for a fun afternoon of creating and connecting over your mutual love of birds and interest in learning something new.

Step-by-step instructions will make it easy for you to learn how to put a bird together, and once you know the basics, you can make anything.

All materials are included, and you will go home with a felting needle, foam block and extra wool to keep making at your own pace.

No experience necessary.
