How to Survive Workshop: Basket Weaving with Baling Straps

10:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 3

Reynolds Room, First Floor, Education Wing

In-Person Event

Since 2012, Hawai'i-based artist Gaye Chan has foraged plastic baling straps and developed a weaving technique to make containers while learning an essential skill practiced around the globe: basket-making. Chan’s basketmaking practice extends the life of an otherwise single-use material through craft and skill sharing. 

Join us for a basket-making workshop for adults and mature teens led by museum staff trained in Chan’s technique. Materials provided. Free; Registration required.

Check out the How to Survive exhibition on the third floor before it closes on Sunday, Jan. 19.
