Knowledge passed from hand to hand.

A handmade rug is more than a finished object. Behind every piece are materials, techniques, traditions, and generations of practical knowledge. Our educational programs offer an opportunity to explore that knowledge through hands-on learning.

01

RUG WEAVING

Learn how a rug is made, one knot at a time.

Discover the fundamentals behind handmade rugs and the process that transforms yarn into pattern. Our rug weaving program introduces the materials, tools, structure, and techniques used in traditional rug making.

Participants can develop an understanding of the loom, warp and weft, knotting, pattern construction, and the craftsmanship behind a handwoven rug.

RUG CLEANING

Learn the principles behind professional rug care.

Proper rug cleaning begins with understanding the rug itself. Different fibers, dyes, construction methods, and conditions require different approaches to care.

Our educational program introduces the principles and practical considerations involved in evaluating, washing, and caring for rugs while respecting their materials and construction.

RUG RESTORATION

Learn to preserve and repair handmade rugs.

Rug restoration combines careful observation, knowledge of rug construction, and skilled handwork. Students can learn how damage is assessed and how restoration techniques are used to preserve a rug's structure and design.

Instruction may explore areas such as foundation repair, damaged pile, edges, fringes, and the techniques used to integrate repairs with the original rug.

CRAFT • CARE • TRADITION

More than learning a technique.

Our programs are an invitation to understand rugs more deeply — how they are constructed, how they age, how they are cared for, and how skilled hands can preserve them for years to come.
