This hands-on experience offers guests a rare glimpse in the art form of traditional rug making and textile design, featuring a short history of the art of rug weaving, sample area of wool and textiles, demonstrations and a lively discussion of how every rug tells a story and every pattern has a history.

Children and adults will enjoy pattern discovery, a scavenger hunt, creating their own rug design and receiving a souvenir photo.
Those who share their photo on Facebook will be entered into a drawing for a 5x8 artisan rug.
