The Craft Center is thrilled to welcome Laura McClain as our Spring 2026 Visiting Artist. Laura McClain is a wet felting artist and educator who works with wool to create functional and expressive décor, accessories, and wearables.

Laura has been creating with fiber arts since childhood and brings a balance of technical knowledge, curiosity, and fun to her teaching. To learn more about Laura McClain, please visit www.lauramcclain.art.

Join the Grove Garden in learning how to grow food and build community with other BIPOC gardeners! All skill levels are welcome. Wear clothes you feel comfortable moving in and wouldn't mind getting a little dirty. We meet at 1605 Moss St. from noon-2pm--hope to see you there!

Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1605 Moss Street - just behind Global Scholars Hall). 

Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have raised beds and other planting areas that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds/transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on.  Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too! Note that at times, we have to cancel/reschedule work parties due to upredictable circumstances, and we may be unable to update this recurring weekly posting. See the above channels for the most up to date information. Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires.

Join the Grove Garden in learning how to grow food and build community with other BIPOC gardeners! All skill levels are welcome. Wear clothes you feel comfortable moving in and wouldn't mind getting a little dirty. We meet at 1605 Moss St. from noon-2pm--hope to see you there!

Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1605 Moss Street - just behind Global Scholars Hall). 

Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have raised beds and other planting areas that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds/transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on.  Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too! Note that at times, we have to cancel/reschedule work parties due to upredictable circumstances, and we may be unable to update this recurring weekly posting. See the above channels for the most up to date information. Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires.

The Craft Center is thrilled to welcome Laura McClain as our Spring 2026 Visiting Artist. Laura McClain is a wet felting artist and educator who works with wool to create functional and expressive décor, accessories, and wearables. At the heart of her practice is a method she calls Felt by Feel—a playful, embodied conversation between maker and material that allows her to stay connected to the wool’s changing textures, while tapping into her own responses as the work evolves. Laura has been creating with fiber arts since childhood and brings a balance of technical knowledge, curiosity, and fun to her teaching. To learn more about Laura McClain, please visit www.lauramcclain.art.
