 Send EmailLandscape Embroidery WorkshopDescriptionInspired by “Memories Fly Home,” the exhibit currently on display in the Museum’s special exhibit gallery, come learn the meditative art of landscape embroidery and begin stitching a gorgeous, wool-felt wall hanging with Emma Mary Murray at the Wendell Gilley Museum on Saturday, Nov. 1, from 10:30am to 1pm. We’ll start with the basics of embroidery, from choosing colors to threading needles and tying knots, then move into how to depict light and topography with thread. Bring images of landscapes that are special to you, or use an image available at the Gilley. All materials provided. Suitable for beginners; all are welcome. The cost is $57 for Museum members and $65 for non-members. Emma Mary Murray is an environmental artist and teacher based on Mount Desert Island. Her primary mediums are landscape embroidery and illustration; her work aims to foster a sense of place by connecting the viewer to the topography, light, and color of a specific view. She uses up-cycled materials when possible and believes that slowly making old things new again is an important form of climate action. Tell a Friend
