Family Stick Loom Weaving

Learn ancient stick loom weaving in this hands-on class. Create a beautiful tapestry using natural materials, simple techniques, and your choice of colors.

About the Class

Come learn the ancient craft of weaving with a stick loom! In this family-friendly class, you’ll learn to hand-weave a simple tapestry using sticks as your loom.

The demonstration will include setting up the warp threads, learning a simple over-under stitch pattern and the final knot step. There will be a variety of stick shapes to choose from and plenty of room to play with pattern and color.

And voila! You’ll leave the class with your stick-loom tapestry (either in progress or completed, depending on the chosen scale). Hang your weaving on your wall to bring nature indoors or from a tree to bring your artistry outside!

This class is open to parents with their children ages 7 through 12.


About your Instructor

Adele Davis

Adele Davis is an herbalist and multi-medium artist who finds great inspiration in the textures of the natural world. She began collecting and drawing natural treasures at age 10 and never stopped! She moved to Sonoma County from New York City in early 2025 to further pursue her herbal studies.

Adele often incorporates plants into her art classes, inviting students to allow their tactile relationship with the natural world –  the texture, weight, shape, & even sound of the material – to influence their art-making process.

Class FAQ

We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class.

Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee (minus the payment processing and services fee), or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.

All credits must be used within 1 year.
