Your Guide and Fibre-Godmother on this Spin to Activate Adventure is Textile Artist and Stitch Witch, Pamela Penney. Pam is passionate about sharing her love of the fiber arts and has been teaching children and adults for over 30 years. As an artist and arts educator, harnessing the energies of the creative process and utilizing them to bring about the changes this world needs now is the magic Pam practices.

Join her and soon you too, will be spinning your own spells and spinning your straw into GOLD!
Pamela Penney lives just outside of Chicago, Illinois where she "practices what she preaches" with a daily spin meditation and morning walks with her two adopted puppies. Pam has remained active in her local arts community for over two decades, currently sitting on the board of the local Art League and as a founding core member of a community maker space initiative. She continues to explore many directions and techniques with her artwork. She exhibits and sells her art both locally and on-line and teaches in-person through local arts organizations.
