Silk Scarf Workshop Scheduled at Reedsburg Public Library
On Saturday March 9, and 16, local artist Ricki Grunberg will teach the class “Dyeing Silk Scarves for Beginners” in the Library’s Community Room. There will be two sections of the class which will meet on two Saturdays in succession. Register for either the 9:30 or 11 a.m, class.
On March 9 participants will dye scarves using the “kool-aid” technique, and prepare for the “silk tie” method which will be completed on March 16. There is room for 8 individuals ages 14 and up in each session. The program is free and all materials will be provided.
Register on the library’s website at www.reedburglibrary.org, or call the library at 608-768-READ (7323).
Many will recognize Grunberg’s art from her display at Lucy’s Mercantile. Originally from the east coast, and now a resident of the rural Driftless, Grunberg works with a variety of media. In addition to silk scarves, she specializes in painting skulls and gourds, and enjoys working with coins, forks and spoons to make rings, bracelets and other jewelry.
