Weave Your Very Own Reed Basket

June 9 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Using nothing but reeds, cane and wood handles we will construct our own baskets. We’ll even have the opportunity to use dyed materials!

With instructor Cassie Jones we will be construction baskets using nothing but lengths of dry reeds and wooden handles. You may even get the opportunity to use hand dyed reeds to incorperate into your personal basket.

Meet up at Cassie’s studio 14 on the second floor of Cherry Street Studio and we will pick out our materials and discuss the process of weaving three dimensionally. Depending on the weather we will take our basket materials and buckets of water to assemble our projects outside in the garden area, or across the way at Race Street Pier.

The Location: This event is held at The Craft Coven’s space in Cherry Street Pier. We are located in studio 14 on the second floor. Unfortunately there are no elevators to the second floor. You will need to go up a very large flight of steps to get to the second floor. The space is heated/cooled inside the pier and there are bathrooms located on site (on the first floor). There are often installations and events around the pier, and the larger space is open from 12-9pm everyday.
