Woolcraft Workshops
In addition to instructing both children and adults here at the farm, Kriss Marion is a frequent guest teacher at local folkart schools and other educational institutions, including Dodgeville’s Folklore Village, Mineral Point’s Shake Rag Alley and Blanchardville’s River Valley Trading Company. She’s demonstrated spinning at bookstores, yarn shops, churches and county fairs. Kriss can also host school groups, of up to two classrooms, on the farm, or bring materials into the classroom. Baby Animals in the Classroom events can be booked for late spring. Learn woolcraft here at the farm, or at your own location!
