Basket Week

Date: October 4, 2022 - October 11, 2022

Time: All Day

Event Description

Join us for a gathering of basket-makers, both advanced and aspiring! Basketry embodies the soul of traditional craft: simple tools, natural materials and skilled hands result in purposeful, beautiful items. Birch bark, spruce root, pine needles, black ash– the northern forest has been generous to basketmakers, and we’ll explore a variety of techniques and forms.
