Discover the art of traditional broom making in this beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop! Students will learn how to weave two functional hand brooms—a turkey wing broom and a hawk's tail broom—while exploring the tools, materials, and techniques used to create these beautiful handcrafted pieces.
Along the way, you'll gain an understanding of broom construction and weaving methods while creating durable brooms that are as practical as they are decorative. No previous experience is required. By the end of the class, you'll leave with two completed hand brooms and the foundational skills to continue exploring the craft.
Please note that broom making is a physical activity that requires the use of both hands and feet, and moderate hand strength is recommended.
