IN-PERSON WORKSHOP    

Leap into crafting with SPES Public Environmental Education Coordinator and felting hobbyist, Anna Bondartchouk! The art of needle felting is taking a needle, some wool, and a bit of patience and creativity to make your own unique creation. Want to try out needle felting while also appreciating wildlife? Come join us in felting our own little amphibious frog friends! Participants must register by September 15 in order to reserve a felting kit (all supplies included with your ticket purchase). Please take care as felting needles are very sharp, recommended for ages 12+.  

Not free this date? Check out our session on September 28!

ABOUT PROGRAM LEADER 

Anna Bondartchouk is the Public Environmental Education Coordinator at Stanley Park Ecology Society. She tried felting in 2021 and was immediately hooked on the idea of making her own toys and creations with such a simple method. Anna enjoys sharing this fun craft with her friends and family. You can follow her felting fun on Instagram (@bluepuppyfelting).
