Sheep To Shawl At Frontier Homestead State Park
Saturday, March 16, 2024.
Join us for a trip back in time as we explore wool, from Sheep to Shawl. Frontier Homestead State Park, in partnership with the Sagebrush Fiber Artisans, will allow participants to journey through the step-by-step process of taking wool from the sheep’s back to yours. Join us from 10 AM – 4 PM to have fun with the whole family. Sheep will be attending as well to give visitors the opportunity to touch and feel before and after their annual haircut. Shearing demonstrations will be given once per hour starting at 10:30 AM, with the final shearing at 3:45 PM.
Demonstrations will include shearing, washing, carding, spinning, dyeing, and weaving. Come enjoy the demonstrations and visit with our talented craftspeople. Cost is $4 per person or $20 per family. Friend’s Group members are free with a membership card.
This living history experience is sponsored by Visit Cedar City Brian Head and hosted at Frontier Homestead State Park Museum, located at 635 North Main Street in Cedar City. Call 435-586-9290 for more information.
