Lake Junaluska, NC - Lake Junaluska and Haywood Community College are partnering to offer a Twined Basketry workshop December 8 as part of the Appalachian Christmas activities at Lake Junaluska. All are welcome to participate in an entry level twined basketry workshop! The class will be held in Harrell Center room 103 (across from the Heritage Center). Registration is $15 per person, and pre-registration is required.
The HCC Instructor will supply all the colorful hand dyed reeds, tools and patterns to participants. Make something for yourself or create a great holiday gift! Students from age 7 to 97 will learn the twined technique and complete a small basket. This easy to master basket form will give participants the understanding to try more ambitious baskets on their own, or in follow-up classes.
Interested students may register by either coming to the HCC campus or by mailing in a registration form which can be found at www.lakejunaluska.com/basketry-workshop. For more information, please contact Kari Rinn, Director of Creative Arts at Haywood Community College by phone at 828-565-4240 or email krrinn@haywood.edu.
