A Rhode Island Public Handweaving Facility
The Rhode Island Weaving Center was established in December of 2020. Our mission is to expand and advance the practice of handweaving through classes, workshops, exhibitions, collaborations, and weaving resources. The Center also serves as a location for other fiber artists to work and learn from one another.
Weaving Classes are offered year round.
Our list of class offerings will be updated regularly. Please check back often to see our latest classes.
