Fiber Art Workshop, Taught by Meghan Shimek

To celebrate the spring season of 2025, FUTURE LYNN sponsored a weekend workshop taught by Oakland based fiber artist Meghan Shimek. Class participants watched Meghan demonstrate key weaving techniques, and then were able to select from vibrantly colored materials to create their own unique wall hangings. It was a wonderful afternoon of gathering, creating and learning.

FUTURE LYNN Roundtable

To kick off 2023, FUTURE LYNN brought together a small group of women from across the US to Southern California.

The goal was to walk away from the weekend retreat with a renewed commitment to self-prioritization and authentic fulfillment.
