IN-PERSON PROGRAM

In the cold season, ducks dominate our coastal waters — and our hearts! Join us to channel this seabird admiration into a crafty creation and needle felt a stunning surf scoter! By taking wool, a needle, and a bit of patience, needle felting can create any toy or sculpture that you can imagine. So bring a friend, have some tea, and learn a new craft. Note: felting needles are very sharp, this program is intended for ages 12+. Price includes felting wool for the project, a felting pad, a needle, and a finger protector. 

Ticket sales will close at 11:00 am on Wednesday, December 4th.

The land on which we gather is the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Musqueam (xʷməθkʷəy̓əm), Squamish (Skwxwú7mesh), and Tsleil-Waututh (səlilwətaɬ) Peoples. Their stewardship and respect for this land has carried forward for thousands of years long before settlers named it “Stanley Park”.
