Description

Get ready for Crafternoons at the Museum! In honor of our America 250 exhibit, Through Their Hands: People and Treasures of Early Coshocton, JH Museum is hosting a series of handcrafting workshops this fall. Beginning in September, Barbara Unger-Lengen will lead a class on 2D felting, aka “wool painting.”

Barbara Unger-Lengen is a fiber artist who started wool rug hooking with the Buckeye Rug Hooking Guild in 2023. She focuses on dry and semi-wet felting in both 2 and 3D. She is a thoughtful teacher and encourages her students to learn the basics but add their own personality into the work.

The class will include a kit with all the supplies needed to complete a framed 8” piece that can hang on a wall or a small easel. Participants will be working with a sharp barbed needle and a pattern to felt roving wool into the pattern. Band-aids will be provided, but rarely needed. Bring your creativity and willingness to learn to the class!

The 2D felting class will take place on September 23, 2026 from 4:00 to 6:00 PM, will cost $25 per person, and is beginner friendly. A different class on slow stitching with Holli Rainwater will take place on October 21, 2026, and a crochet class with Jenn Bush, Abigail Callis, and Amanda Fehrenbach will be held on November 11, 2026. Stay tuned for more details about the next two classes.

The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum

The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum opened to the public on May 8, 1931. Its collections originate from a bequest by Coshocton natives David M. and John H. Johnson to the city of Coshocton as a memorial to their Johnson and Humrickhouse ancestors. These native-born brothers settled on the West Coast and traveled abroad where they collected American Indian, European, and Asian artifacts. Their primary collections consisted of American Indian baskets and beadwork; Asian fine and decorative arts and weaponry; and European and American ceramics, glassware, and textiles. JHM's collections have grown through donations, primarily in areas of local history and pre-historic Ohio Indian tools and points.

 

Our mission is to inspire creativity, the love of learning, and an appreciation of diverse cultures and local heritage. Towards this end, the museum preserves and interprets its cross-cultural collections and presents complementary exhibits and programs.
