Late Night at the Museum: Weaving History

Visit the Boott Cotton Mills Museum after hours and experience the historic weave room, all free of charge. Feel the beat of the looms as you step back in time and learn about the history of Lowell’s part in the Industrial Revolution.

Then take a break to sit and mediate as you get a chance to weave on our hand looms. Feel the rhythm and relax, find your groove and attune to the loom! Whether you need a break from the day-to-day bustle or are looking to discover a new peaceful past time, Mindful Weaving Workshops offer a serene setting to unwind while weaving on our handlooms. Instructors will be available to assist for those who have never woven before, and our experienced weavers will be set up for success with pattern options to experiment with.

The Mindful Weaving workshop is intended for ages 16 and up. Workshops will be offered on July 16, August 6, and September 9. Each date has two 1-hour sessions available, beginning at 4:30pm and 5:45pm. For more information and to reserve your spot, please call (978) 970-5000.
This free event is part of the Late Night at the Museum series, offered June through October. Visit the Boott Cotton Mills Museum after-hours on the third Thursday of each month to experience the museum in a way in a new light.
