This fall, join us for a retreat full of fun, learning, and bandweaving.
October 18–22, 2026 | Delavan, Wisconsin

Spend four days with other band enthusiasts building your skills in inkle and tablet weaving, from designing and warping to finishing! With engaging classes, special group activities, and all the comforts of a fiber arts retreat, it’s immersive learning with community spirit.

Each day offers a choice of focused, one-day classes covering an exciting range of inkle and tablet weaving approaches—structural techniques, pattern development, color exploration, finishing details, and much more. After class, gather with fellow bandweavers and instructors to compare notes, examine samples, and ask the endless weaving “what ifs.”

With lodging, meals, instruction, and materials included, Band Camp lets you focus entirely on weaving. No tents, no cooking—just time to learn and make.

The ticket price includes hands-on classes, materials fees, evening activities, hotel accommodations, meals, and more! 

Final classes will be announced in May, and participants will be invited to choose classes on a first purchased, first choice basis.

You may cancel your registration for any reason up to 90 days before the event for a refund. We do charge a 10% processing fee, so you will receive 90% of your payment back.

Thank You to Our Sponsors:

Hello Band Campers! It’s hard to believe that more than 25 years have passed since we first opened Heritage Spinning and Weaving. Over the years, we’ve shared countless adventures, friendships, classes, gatherings, and creative projects. But the most meaningful part of our journey has always been the vibrant community of fiber lovers we’ve built together. Whether you knit, crochet, weave, spin, or hook rugs, you’ll feel right at home here. We’re thrilled to support the inaugural Band Camp and the community you’ll create together. We hope you enjoy exploring our offerings in the Product Playground! Be sure to visit us in Michigan or online anytime and subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date on shop news, events, and inspiration.
