Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.“’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—Only this and nothing more.”
Excerpt from The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe, first published by Wiley and Putnam 1845 in The Raven and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe
Sculpt a raven made of wool while studying it first-hand! Join us and Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre on the 176th anniversary of Edgar Allan Poe's eternal departure to needle-felt a raven while learing about Kangee The Raven and the important work this rescue does in our community.
A variation on our popular Birbs/Birdbrains felting class, at FELT A RAVEN WITH A RAVEN each participant will be taught basic skills to needle-felt a simplfied, styilzed bird while drawing on inspiration from our extra-special guest, an animal ambassador from Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre (PWRC)!
This class is suitable for beginner feltmakers, ages eight and up. Needle-felters with prior experience are welcome to join this special workshop but instructions will be geared to an introductory class. WOOL MOUNTAIN supplies all the tools and materials, and participants depart at the end of the night with one small finished piece and the tools they've used in class. Light refreshments served.
