SUMMARY:Felt Together
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the intricate bas-relief needlework and cozy scenes featured in My Bed: Enchanting Ways to Fall Asleep Around the World\, our newest Together workshop series\, Felt Together\, explores the art of needle felting. The series is led by Sophie Ancel\, a fiber artist who blends rich textures and thoughtful layering to bring imaginative landscapes to life. Through her process-driven approach to wool and textile art\, she brings a warm\, accessible perspective to the world of living craft. \nFriday\, January 8\, 2027 | 5-7pm In January\, Inspired by the many animals found in Salley Mavor’s tender art\, this workshop will show how to needle felt a little owl on lush velvet fabric\, and you will learn how to layer and shape the wool in order to get a dimensional effect. You will also use yarns to create a border around your piece with the needles. \nThe Together series at Mingei invites makers of all skill levels to come together and create in a supportive\, low-pressure environment. Past iterations—Sew Together\, Weave Together\, Dye Together\, Stitch Together\, Clay Together\, and Knot Together—explore a variety of craft techniques while emphasizing collaboration\, experimentation\, and hands-on learning. Each workshop encourages participants to connect with materials\, try new skills\, and enjoy the process of making together.

SUMMARY:Create a Skate with "Professor" Paul Schmitt
DESCRIPTION:Join Mingei for a two-day workshop led by master craftsman and Skate Craft advisor Paul Schmitt. Known as “The Professor\,” Paul has spent over forty years at the absolute vanguard of skateboard engineering. Since hacking out his very first shape in 1980 and later founding PS Stix\, he has quietly dialed in the exact templates\, concaves\, and mold tech used by generations of the world’s most iconic pro skaters. \nUnder Paul’s expert\, hands-on guidance\, you will explore the deep science of skateboard design and transform a raw material into your own custom\, skateboard deck. \nSchedule \n\nSaturday\, January 16 – Explore how form follows function as Paul breaks down the physics of wheelbase\, concave\, and taper. Using a cardboard template\, you will sketch and draft your custom shape.\nBetween sessions\, Paul will take your templates to his personal workshop to expertly cut\, route\, and prepare your custom maple deck.\nSaturday\, January 23 – Head back to the Museum to pick up your custom-cut deck! You’ll use hand tools to sand your board\, then bring it to life with custom stencils\, Sharpies\, paint\, and stickers.\n\nRecommended for ages 14+.

SUMMARY:The Baulsters
DESCRIPTION:A respectable HOA meeting quickly erupts into a free-for-all of grudges and bad behavior when a newcomer dares to challenge “how we’ve always done things.” What begins as a simple proposal for a neighborhood stop sign soon exposes bruised egos\, hidden agendas\, and the chaos that lies beneath the curb appeal of a picture-perfect community. Tony and Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire (Kimberly Akimbo\, Rabbit Hole) and Globe favorite Steve H. Broadnax III (Topdog/Underdog\, Appropriate) team up for the West Coast premiere of the Tony Award-nominated Broadway comedy that Variety calls “brilliant and brutally funny!” \nSingle tickets go on sale Friday\, January 8\, 2027 at 1:00 p.m. For early access\, visit our subscription page for more information on the 2027 season!

SUMMARY:Felt Together
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the intricate bas-relief needlework and cozy scenes featured in My Bed: Enchanting Ways to Fall Asleep Around the World\, our newest Together workshop series\, Felt Together\, explores the art of needle felting. The series is led by Sophie Ancel\, a fiber artist who blends rich textures and thoughtful layering to bring imaginative landscapes to life. Through her process-driven approach to wool and textile art\, she brings a warm\, accessible perspective to the world of living craft. \nFriday\, March 5 | 5-7pm In March\, reconnect with the simple magic of childhood and those cherished little keepsakes tucked away on a bedside table. Reminiscent of childrens’ bedside table treasures\, these needlefelted pebbles and acorns are a nice way to learn how to make dimensional objects out of wool\, each one different from the next just like in nature! \nThe Together series at Mingei invites makers of all skill levels to come together and create in a supportive\, low-pressure environment. Past iterations—Sew Together\, Weave Together\, Dye Together\, Stitch Together\, Clay Together\, and Knot Together—explore a variety of craft techniques while emphasizing collaboration\, experimentation\, and hands-on learning. Each workshop encourages participants to connect with materials\, try new skills\, and enjoy the process of making together.
