We are so excited to be hosting Jenna Bradford from Groundwork for a Basket Weaving workshop!

Join us for your first exploration of willow basket weaving! This class covers the foundations of European-style willow weaving. You’ll learn to weave a small, round basket using the simplest weaving techniques. You’ll learn to create a sturdy base, add sides to the basket, and finish your basket with a strong border. At the end of the class, you’ll have all the skills to weave your own baskets and begin to explore more advanced willow weaving techniques.
