Thanks Volunteers!

Our wonderful volunteers - Pat Cornwell, Corrie Habib, Kim Wall, Sarah Thomsen, and Kristen Nicholas - talked up SEFAA at this past weekend's Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair. We are very grateful for their time and enthusiasm and look forward to doing it again next year. 

Social Media Buzz

A mom and her daughter visited the SEFAA Center recently to see Puppet Fun: Art You Can Play With and had a great visit - looking at the sewing machines and looms and, of course, playing with the puppets. Corrie gave them some colorful raffia to take home, and they shared the love by featuring SEFAA in a Can I Color Now Studios Facebook Post!

SEFAA Out and About

SEFAA's Katrina Stone and Corrie Habib worked together to bring weaving to emerging interior designers as part of the recent Converge Summit (a collaboration between IIDA and Interface). The hands-on making experience came at the end of a long day of learning about and discussing sustainability in design, so everyone enjoyed weaving with donated and recycled materials.
