The First of Many Craft Nights at King's Books!

Wow! What a great night we had.

Thanks you to all who came out and to Miranda Pollitz who led us in our felting adventure!

It was so great to see the 30 or so participants turn bright, cotton candy like wool into wonderful little birds.

With great anticipation we wait for March's Craft Night. It is not to be missed. Artist Chris Sharp will be leading a fantastic, break-dancing based collage workshop. Join us on March 11th at 7pm at King's Books. And be sure to RSVP to Sweet Pea. See you soon!

February 11 * 7 pm. Craft Night: Needle Felting!

Tacoma Is For Lovers presents their first Craft Night! Each month will feature an artist who will introduce a new craft. The first 45 minutes will be devoted to learning the necessary techniques. After which, people can continue working on the activity or work on other projects. This month features Miranda Pollitz who will introduce needle felting. The $15 fee covers materials (needle, carded wool, foam pad) plus a small donation to TIFL and King's Books. The project will focus on creating the felted bird featured in the book Little Felted Animals by Marie-Noëlle Horvath. Please pre-register with sweet pea so that we know how many materials to bring!

Tacoma Is For Lovers is a community-based organization which annually produces an Artist Craft Fair which promotes the visibility of local artists and encourages reuse, intentionality, sustainability and high craft.

Dear Artists and Community Supporters,

Thank you all so much for your hard work, beautiful wares and continued support!

So far, we have raised about $1300 for Colleen Malone. I still have a few auction items floating about, so I don't have a final count.

I am so happy to have shared Sunday with all of you. I hope that you will all participate again next November. Spring is also a possibility. I will let you know.

Please contact me with any comments or suggestions you have for future events. Each one is a little different and we continue to learn things each time.

Hope you all had a great holiday and see you soon,

sincerely,
jennifer and katy/ Tacoma is for Lovers
