General Admission

Explore historic weaving techniques on a traditional inkle loom with the Freehold Township Heritage Society. In this hands-on session, you will learn how narrow woven bands were created for everyday use in earlier times. Guided by our volunteers at the Oakley Farmhouse Museum, you will set up a loom, practice basic weaving, and see how simple patterns take shape. THERE ARE TWO CLASS SESSIONS. The first class you will warp your loom and begin to weave. Take the loom home for the week, and continue working on it. When you return on Oct 19, you will finish the strap and remove it from the loom. All materials provided.&nbsp; Your participation supports our mission to preserve and share the history of Freehold Township.
