Art Classes Sussex

In the Rehoboth Art League’s “ Basic Rug Hooking” class students will learn the basics of rug hooking to complete two wall hangings. The instructor, Sue Nesin, will teach the art of “pulling wool,” using proper form and technique to be a “healthy, happy hooker.” Class content will include examples of color planning, discussions of equipment, setup, and different styles.

There will be two classes on consecutive Tuesdays, May 15 and May 22, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to noon and then two weeks later a third and final Tuesday class, June 12 from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m. to learn how to finish the wall hangings. The two week break will allow students time to complete the projects. In addition to the registration fee of $110 per person, there is a $40 supply fee to be paid to the instructor. The supply fee covers the cost of the rug hooking kits and rug hook. The deadline for registration for the class is Sunday, April 29 so as to have enough time to order the rug kits. The Rehoboth Art League will supply the rug frames for students to use for the duration of the class.

To register for this class, go to www.rehobothartleague.org or call the Art League at 302-227-8408 ext. 112. All classes are held at the Rehoboth Art League, located at 12 Dodds Lane in Henlopen Acres, Rehoboth Beach.
