Natural Materials Basketry Course - Art School of Peterborough
Description
Spring Term: Basketry – (Wed) 8 weeks
Wednesday, April 22 to Wednesday, June 10
1:00 pm to 4:00 pm
In this course, students will be able to deepen their understanding of locally available basketry materials and fundamental techniques. We will learn how to harvest and process local plants that can be easily found in backyards, urban neighborhoods, and other natural areas, with an emphasis on invasive species. Additionally, there will be hands-on demonstrations of key basketry techniques, such as cordage, braiding, weaving, twining, coiling, plaiting, and twill. This course is well-suited for those with basketry experience at all levels (including beginners) who want to learn how to identify, harvest, process, and use the wide variety of plants nature has to offer in Peterborough and the surrounding areas. Students are also welcome to bring any materials from their own foraging. Throughout the course, students will make 4-5 baskets from a variety of materials using various techniques.
