Artist In Residence, National Museum of Wildlife Art
2025 in Jackson Hole, WY
Doris will be weaving a tapestry inspired by the Absoroka Mountain Range in the entrance to the Museum from July 7 through 11th, from 11:00 to 3:00 each day.
Doris invites visitors to the museum to watch her weave. Better yet, whether you are an experienced weaver or not, pick up a shuttle. Doris will show you how to weave a few rows of the touring Mother Tree Project. It is a 16′ growing fiber sculpture of a pine tree, with a conservation message about the need to preserve our environment.
Day 1: Weaving People Together – Introduction to the Mother Tree Project
Day 2: Needle Felting Experience – Making felted Pine Cones and wraping branches for the Mother Tree. Add your piece to the Mother Tree.

Day 4: Spinning, wrapping wool branches and Poetry.
