This year, all fiber fest classes (except the dyeing classes) will be held at the Sparta United Methodist Church fellowship hall.  This facility is located at 190 N. Main Street, Sparta, NC, almost directly across the street from the Alleghany Inn.  

Space is limited for all classes.  Classes will run if the minimum number of students is met, so to be sure and get the class you want, invite a friend to register, too!  Last minute registration is not recommended, and will only be accommodated if the instructor allows.  We hate to disappoint folks, so register early!  

All materials fees are to be paid directly to the instructor

Free Admission
