Join the Museum for this self-guided tour of 17 gardens and artist studios across Cortes Island. It is a rare opportunity to see some gorgeous gardens and artists' studios, usually very private spaces. Do not miss it!

Presenting Tennant Farms Bunkie Studio

Loretta: Drop by to view Tennant Farms Bunkie Studio. This tiny studio showcases my love of working with fibre and colour. There are hand-spun yarns, hand-knit items, colourful felted dryer balls and one-of-a-kind handwoven clothing for purchase.

Spinning wheels will be available for anyone interested in trying their hand at spinning wool roving. For refreshments, enjoy some rosemary shortbread and iced tea.
