Down by the Liffey exhibition

Keep this date free. It’s the opening evening for our exhibition at Down by the Liffey. Our exhibition is running from 16th August to 10th September. We are lucky enough to have been chosen as their community group for the year. The Southern Felters organising team is working on this exhibition now. It should be a great show.

Christchurch South library exhibition
The finish date I sent out for the Chch library exhibition was wrong. It is open now and the felting will be coming down on Thursday 10th August.

Next felting days

Our next felting day is August 5. Barbara King has offered to take a "make a scarf " class.  The following felting day September 2nd we are going to be offering a beginner’s felting class.

Southern Felters exhibition at Christchurch South Library

If you are interested in seeing what we make on our felting days get along to Christchurch South Library. We have work on display until 10th August.  It is open the same hours as the library.

Kaiapoi Art Expo

Southern Felters has a table out at Kaiapoi Art Expo today - hands on felting and display.  Thank you to those who are running this today; Jane, Barb, Vic and Loraine.

There are 100 artists under one roof so it sounds well worth a visit - 15 minutes from Christchurch with lots to see.
