A Wide Ruins composition by instructor Liz Munk

Spend six quiet days with master weavers Jennie Slick and Liz Munk and dyer Mary Walker in a class designed to advance your knowledge of Navajo techniques and dyes. This class is intended to give you the opportunity delve into new areas and larger projects with the support of master weavers. No planned field trips and classroom is closed to outside interruptions. Located near the Navajo Nation Museum, Hubbell Trading Post and other research resources.  At your option, you may spend time with Mary Walker perfecting your natural dye skills using both native and non-native materials.

Participants are expected to be able to warp and set up their own looms, but need not do so before the start of the seminar.  You will have access to any and all necessary equipment.  Local weavers are encouraged to visit and may participate when their time allows.

Upcoming Class Dates

  • August 7-13, 2011 (Sunday morning-Saturday evening), five seats open  

Tuition is $700, which includes the use of a loom and tools for the week.  Tuition also includes one group meal (pizza night).

Housing Cost: $62 per day single occupancy, $74 per day double. Estimated cost of meals is under $25 per day.

    i really appreciated being in your class last January, at the Boettcher Mansion. I’m just about to finish my weaving with Kathy Strathearn’s help. She also told me about your weaving and dyeing classes in August.Morris Muskett also told me your weaving class was really good. I guess the class is already filled, but I would love to be wait listed. I am also interested in the natural dyeing class. I will look forward to hearing from you. Thanks,

    Raymon: I have a blanket simialr to the pink blanket. My dad's family had sheep. Every year they would gather the wool and take it to Utah Woolen mills and make beautiful wool blankets. Similar to Pendleton blankets, in many different colors. Love the turquoise jewlrey. My mom has a big beaded bag of it that I hope I get a few peices of (she's half Native American) She finds it kind of amusing that Native American prints etc. are "in" right now.

    Remigio: Way to go, Navajo Nation! Either cease-and-desist, or collect roiaetyls for the use of your name (only on quality products of which you approve, of course). Same with sports teams that use Native names as mascots. Until recently, the University of North Dakota was paying the Standing Rock Sioux annual roiaetyls to use the name Fighting Sioux , which was a win-win and a source of pride for both parties. Unfortunately for both the Tribe and the university, political correctness put an end to that.

    Ann Puzio: Hi Mary, Need to change to the waiting list for 9/13-20th. I hope this is possible.Also, going to see if I can sign up for the online class, need to check my computer. Thanks ann
