A group of women engaged in a colorful felt crafting workshop.

Ferris Hills Residents & Tina Blackwood

Art Instructor, Tina Blackwood, led Ferris Hills residents into the world of wool and felting. Needle felting is a fiber art process that involves repeatedly poking a barbed needle into wool to compress, harden, and shape it into a desired form. After exploring the many-colored materials, they then put their new skills to work making colorful, handcrafted coasters.

Take a look at the residents’ work.

Open Art event at Gallery 32 with multiple Saturday dates from April to June.

CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP FROM STAS

Thank you Matthew, Managing Director

Ontario County Arts Council (OCAC) is delighted with our new hanging system in our gallery, generously donated by STAS.
Come and enjoy our exhibit and see how the STAS system works at Gallery 32, 32 N. Main Street, Canandaigua, NY 14424
This will greatly impact our ability to showcase artists and quickly adapt for changing shows.

The STAS hanging system will enhance our gallery and allow artists to hang their own work exactly how they want it to be viewed.
