Discover the art of felting with artist Omi Gray!
You will learn the process of interlocking merino wool fibers with hand-dyed silk fabric. The result will be new handcrafted textile called “Nuno Felt.” This fantastic technique will feel like a watercolor painting; the only difference is that the materials used will be silk, wool, water, and soap. All supplies provided.

Omi's Harlem Design Studio is within walking distance from Central Park. You can be sure to find her in "Natures Art Studio," Central Park, collecting leaves and even weaving on her portable floor loom. "People are always fascinated when they see me gathering leaves; they ask 'what are going to do with them?' I show them pictures of my work and they are pleasantly surprised. When I'm weaving on my loom, in the park, I often invite people to sit, watch and try it out. I enjoy converting people to the Art of Creating."
