Workshop Proposal

Do you have a fiber skill you want to share? We are always looking for new workshops to offer our community. Please fill out the form below with as much information you can about your workshop idea.

Workshops should focus on the production or use of local fibers, dyes, textiles, or other resources in the Piedmont Fibershed.

If you would like to propose multiple workshops, please submit a separate proposal for each workshop.

Our standard instructor pay is $45/teaching hour. To make sure that we can pay our instructors and the Piedmont Fibershed staff, our usual minimum enrollment for workshops is 5 students. If this pay structure would not work for your workshop, please make sure to note that in the form.
