Participants will learn the techniques involved in the traditional weaving processes along with gaining an understanding of the growth, harvesting and preparation of willow for basketry. Commencing with workshops to enable participants to bond as a group and learn the basics of basketry, the weaving project will culminate with a workshop where each participant will weave \u201cThe Willow Lampshade\u201d, the ultimate symbol of \u201cThere\u2019s a crack in everything, that\u2019s how the light gets \u201dThis program will provide a safe environment to connect and create.<\/p>\n
