Introduction to Basket Weaving with Patti Brousseau

Workshop Date: Saturday, June 3     10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Class size: 8 students


Tuition & Materials: $30.00

Location: Main Street Studio - 786 Charlton Road, Charlton NY 12019

Local artisan, Patti Brousseau, will demonstrate basket weaving techniques and walk students through creating their own decorative basket they can take home with them at the end of the class.

The basket that students will make in this class is approximately 5" x 3" x 5" plus the handle height. It is made by weaving rattan reed and using basketry tools to achieve the final shape. It's the perfect size for learning basic techniques and making something fun in an afternoon! 

This course is intended for young adult/adult beginners to intermediate basket weavers. Previous basket weaving experience is optional.
