Join Master Weaver Shannon Lucas-Westrum for a hands-on basket weaving workshop, where you’ll craft a versatile basket perfect for hearth or harvest. Under the expert guidance of Shannon and her apprentice, you’ll build a sturdy grid base and weave the sides around an 8” square hoop. You’ll also learn to create cordage from local grasses or leaves and work with birch bark for decorative accents. The finished basket will measure 8” high, 9” wide, and 14” long- a beautiful and functional piece to take home.

Thanks to an Arts Education Grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, participant cost for this workshop has been reduced by more than 60% and all materials are included free of cost. Instructor will provide all necessary tools (shears, weights, towels, wash tubs, etc.)

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the Arts and cultural heritage fund.
