After leading two sold-out workshops in December, Penny Hewitt returns to Catamount Arts Center for a day of basket making for adults and high school students. For thousands of years, baskets served as indispensable objects in every culture. Carry on the tradition and take home a beautiful, durable and useful berry basket crafted from local and responsibly harvested, hand pounded black ash logs.
This workshop is a great introduction to the extraordinary qualities of the black ash tree. Included is a discussion on how the material is harvested and processed.
