Millcreek Meeting Room (Capacity 80)

Get inspired by the beauty of nature and yarn paintings from the Utah Museum of Fine Arts education collection!

The Utah Museum of Fine Arts (UMFA) is dedicated to bringing events and art activities to community spaces throughout Utah. Join artist and UMFA education curator Virginia Catherall at the Millcreek Library to explore yarn painting. Yarn painting originates from the Wixárika culture of Mexico. These pictures made of colorful yarn offer an amazing opportunity to explore your creativity and create your own landscape picture.

This program is intended for adults due to its complexity. A small alternate craft is available for kids.
