LACE EDUCATION AND CLASSES
The mission of the Kristin S. Conrad Lace Center Foundation states its educational goals, which include a range of
instructional, programmatic, and emerging needs, including classes, lectures, and lacemaking demonstrations.
The Center has dedicated space for all of these activities:
- Adult classes for beginning and more advanced lace makers. Local teachers at the center teach the classes.
The scheduled Spring and Fall Bobbin Lace classes are given in two-hour sessions for ten weeks. A pillow, pins, and bobbins are included in
the class fee.
- Specialty beginner classes for other forms of lace making (e.g. Tatting and Broomstick Lace) are given throughout the year, provided by an experienced instructor if
there is enough interest in our community. Check to the right for such class offerings.
- Adult Continuing Education Advanced classes are offered on weekends to experienced lacemakers or beginning tatters. Participants need to be
members of the museum.
- Youth classes are offered once a year. The minimum age is 10. The classes are held once a week for six weeks. Check to the right for
such class offerings.
