Beginners Classes

Learn basketry in our cozy new basketry work area! Basketry is both a folk art and a relaxing, enjoyable hobby. Mary combines her love of basketry, teaching and sharing her Piney-Lenape heritage in all her classes, creating an enjoyable and memorable experience for each of her students.

Wednesdays, 7:00 - 9:00 pm
This class is for beginners and anyone just starting the Six Week Class (see below).

Thursdays, 7:00 - 9:00 pm
This will be a regular open weave session. This session is for those who have already taken the Six Week Class.

Six Week Class
Red Hat Ladies classYou will make three distinct and different baskets
in this six-week session: the Bread Basket, the Melon Basket and the Homestead Vegetable Basket. These are all beautiful and useful, and were specifically chosen as they cover all the basic skills required to become an accomplished basket maker.

These sessions are geared to beginner and intermediate levels, although Mary has two students who have been with her for twelve years!

Cost: The $60 fee covers the full six week session, plus cost of supplies. Sessions are renewable and other baskets will be taught as each student increases his or her skill level.
