The Southern Cultural Heritage Center presents “Basket Weaving 101” with Amy Erwin on Thursday, April 17, 2025, at 5:30 pm.

In this first class, learn the basics of basket weaving using the twining technique with round reed. Students will be guided step by step to make a lovely serving tray basket of their very own. Although this class is designed for beginners, basket makers of any level are welcome. Everything you need for your basket will be provided.
