SUN, SEPTEMBER 14, 25, 10AM - 5PM We're excited to share the wonderful diverse world of weaving at this year's Solano Avenue Stroll. We're presenting education on weaving through engagement with hands-on projects, including various demonstrations of weaving on a range of looms and equipment. Please stop by, say "hi", and learn more about this historic craft, and today's contemporary fiber art.
