Weaving Independent Study
The independent study offers a focused period of deep immersion into one’s weaving practice. This is intended for weavers with at least a basic foundation of weaving, as well as for more experienced weavers. You will have the opportunity to plan and carry out one or more projects with guided assistance exploring any number of these approaches to weaving - technical, material, conceptual, historical, ancestral, etc.
ROOM & BOARD
For your stay you will choose between the studio apartment and the back apartment which are both attached to the main house, and are fully equipped with a private kitchen and bathroom. A floor loom will be set up in the space for you along with basic weaving tools and a small collection of weaving books. During your stay at Succuro you will also have the opportunity to explore the land – the farm, plenty of fields, a trail up in the woods, and a stream that runs through.
You will be responsible for providing and cooking your food during your Independent Study. During the Summer months, there is plenty to purchase from Succurro as well — vegetable and meat raised here, fresh sourdough bread, and eggs. You are also responsible for your travel to and from Succurro.
The costs of Independent Study include a per-night fee for staying in one of the apartments, which is discounted the longer you stay. This nightly fee includes cleaning fee and loom rental. Additionally, you will work out with Isabella how many hours you will need of guidance from her. All of this will be worked out in your consultation, made to fit within your budget.
