As the daughter of a farmer and artisanal weaver, I've grown up with fiber my whole life. I'm still connected to the larger American cottage wool industry in a professional capacity. As such, I have first hand perspective at the slow decline in accessibility of fiber arts, and the recent post-pandemic resurgence is exciting - it makes me think of the "Return to the Land" movements of the 1970s and all of the things that we now know grew from that reconnection to the land gives me hope. BlubirdTeaches works to discover new ways to apply fiber as a medium in fine art and encourage new interest in the fiber arts. All public workshops and single lessons are focused around small projects that can be accomplished in two hours.  Longer curriculum is open to students who want something more or are hungry for more advanced skills and need help.

​

The schedule is currently full. Accepting private students and single session bookings for spring 2023. Full schedule of public workshops are running in the East Aurora and Rochester area. 

​

Any public workshop is bookable as an individual studio session, or a cocoon for 5 persons or more. Can handle groups up to 20. Booking reservations for May 2023 and beyond.

Most topics can be modified to suit youth age groups 11-15 upon request.  For youth under 10 or for homeschool groups, please send a message to receive information on private kids bookings.
