Rag Rugs

Learn to make rag rugs out of old sheets! This is a simple crocheted method that requires minimal tools and no loom. Rugs can be made small for bathrooms and entry ways, or large for living rooms and bedrooms. Everyone will go home with the start of a rag rug and all the tools needed to complete it!

Students will have access to supplies dyed from materials sourced right here at the Art Farm. This class is part of our Art + Agriculture Series. Art + Agriculture classes explore the connections between art, agriculture, and ecology and the ways that these connections build a sense of place. Check out more from this series here.

This class is taught by artist-in-residence alumni, Bellingham-based Jane Burleigh. Jane is a textile artist with a background in industrial sewing. We're thrilled to host Jane for this class!

Registration: Please register early if you are able, as it helps us to assure that classes meet their minimums in order to run! If you register more than three weeks before this class begins, a 20% early bird discount will automatically be applied to your ticket at checkout.

A Note on Ticket Pricing: We are offering sliding scale tickets in order to keep our classes accessible to as many community members as possible. There are three price tiers. Sustaining tickets help us continue to invest in programming. Full price tickets cover the costs associated with running classes. Accessibility tickets are priced below what it costs for us to run a class. If the cost of a full price ticket is a hardship, we encourage you to purchase a sliding scale ticket. If you can pay the full price or sustaining price, please choose that option so we can keep providing arts programming to the community.

Tuition Assistance: Tuition assistance is available for Alchemy classes and workshops if finances are a barrier. Apply for tuition assistance here.
