Wool Felted Fairy House
Alice Shupe is co-founder of Sheep in a Tree, an educator, story teller and fiber artist based in the Raleigh area. Storytelling and play have a special relationship - each supports the other. Retelling stories in play or creating new ones, allows children to become "storymakers" - making stories come to life. As children practice their stories, their oral language skills develop and literacy is enhanced. Alice's creations are inspired by nature, as well as the Waldorf, Reggio Emilia and Montessori traditions, and created for open-ended play. In this workshop, you will make a felted 3D Fairy House. Ages 12+. This is a special offering in conjunction with our Forsyth County Public Library Puppet Collaboration and "Hear Come the Puppets" Summer Exhibit.
