Eastman – Saturdays, Jan 15 & 22, 2-5pm (In-Person)

Random weave is an intuitive and organic form of basketweaving, and can be employed to make both functional vessels and sculptural works of art. Learn this simple and meditative technique and explore using a range of natural materials to create a basket. In the first day, we will learn the basics of the technique and create the structure. In the second session, we will continue weaving out our forms to create density and dimensional composition.
