Denmark SheepFEST – Celebrating 25 years of Sheep Farmers & Fiber Arts

Denmark Arts Center

Spinners, shearing, displays of felting, knitting, every color of yarn you can think of, lots of sheep and lambs, and wool, lots of WOOL!

When you first enter the hall of the Denmark Arts Center you will receive a friendly ‘hello’ from the greeter at the front desk who collects the small admission fee. She can direct you to the food area, tell you where to find the rest room, or sell you a Sheepfest bag or apron. She can also point out where to find different ongoing demonstrations or how to find a certain vendor.  With a smile she’ll send you on your way to discover lots of wonderful things that can be done with Fiber!

You’ll find an area devoted to Used Equipment where you can purchase fiber tools in good shape for a good price. You might find a spinning wheel or some weaving shuttles, a yarn winder ,extra  bobbins for your wheel or a lazy kate. Just ask – someone will know how to use it and be happy to show you.

Call Linda Whiting at 207-452-2687 or email at linda@pinestarstudio.com to register sheep for shearing. There is no fee though donations are gratefully accepted at the door.
