Welcome to
Tupshin: The Weavery  

The Weavery is a workshop studio and outdoor space, available for artistic retreats, workshops and classes. Using Chinook jargon, the Weavery is called tupshin which means needle. Tupshin mamook means “to sew.”

Surrounded by 68 acres of natural beauty, the Weavery is also part of Sahale Learning Center, and offers a rich environment to nurture the creative spirit.  Gardens, orchards, river and stream, native plant restoration, and wilderness provide numerous places for reflection and inspiration and a broad array of subject matter for the plein air artist.



The Workshop Studio
The Workshop Studio is a dedicated space for fiber arts and fine arts. The studio is approximately 500 square feet, with good lighting and plenty of electrical outlets.  It is designed to accommodate groups of about 10 people for quilting, other fiber arts, and fine art. Additional space is available on the second floor of this two story building as well as an attached covered outdoor area.

Housing
The Weavery campus comfortably houses up to 12, in two buildings – the main house (Tum Tum) and Homestead Cabin, while the Sahale Learning Center has additional housing for up to 35 people plus camping. Room and board costs are reasonable.
