Join us for a full day basket weaving intensive with weaver Alexa Rivera of WOVN.COUNTRY. In this workshop, everyone will make and leave with their own Herb gathering basket, a whimsical basket with a wide woven base and sturdy wooden handle. We will learn basic basketry techniques, and spend the day practicing this ancient, utilitarian, and meditative craft. Join us at the Montgomery Center for the Arts to make your very own herbalist basket- perfect for a special holiday gift, or use while foraging in the woods, harvesting leafy greens in the garden, drying herbs, or a center piece filled with flowers on the dinner table.
Water and light snacks provided, please back a lunch.
