This is an amazing place with so much history. I have taken weaving classes and they rent and sell looms. They also teach spinning. Michelle, one of the workers, is so wonderful to work with. They also have a really nice gift shop. If you get the chance GO!
Went up for the umpteenth time recently. This time we rented a loom so my wife and I could do some looming from the comfort of our own home.
Great place to take kids to learn history and do hands on learning.
The Little Loom house has many cons before pros.Cons - Location is hidden, and easy to miss when driving on the road. Not wheelchair accessible! (Located on a hill, the place is very dependent on stairs.) Parking is horrible. Yes, they have the tiniest parking lot ever.Pros - The staff are lovely and do a good job. The looming demo is very fun! Good gift shop, seak and find activity, colouring books, and fun twisty-bracelet activity.If you have a Cultural Pass, use it to come and visit The Little Loom house, but beware you will be mad and annoyed with how *little* The Little Loom house really is.
Recently toured the main house and talked for quite a while with staff. It was a lifetime dream to get to see where Lou Tate lived for so many years. This was my old stomping ground and so glad its now a vital and growing organization dedicated to fabric arts.
A hidden gem! A beautiful place to buy a handmade gift, see work from a regional artist, participate in a workshop, or take a historic tour.
Amazing!! Looming is very easy and fun!!!
