BASKET WEAVING
Join us for an inspiring series of workshops with local fiber artist Meg Viney! Meg is offering three hands-on sessions exploring different forms of basketry, inviting you to discover your creativity while building your skills along the way.
You'll start by crafting your own twig basket vessel, progress to the art of melon basketry, and finally refine your technique with delicate pine needle weaving. Throughout the journey, Meg will gently guide you in working with natural materials, unveiling the incredible versatility of earth basketry.
For Meg, the natural world is abundant with fibrous plants, feathers, straw, and sticks—each waiting to be transformed into stunning vessels. Blending an explorer’s curiosity with an artist’s keen eye, she approaches both art-making and community-building with a spirit of generosity and deep respect for nature.
Material list provided once sessions are confirmed.
