​THE EXPERIENCE

 

Join Olivia Cromarty for a hands-on weaving workshop designed for your students: smaller woven key rings  F-4 and baskets for grades 4-7. Weaving for older year levels. Each student will be given a pre-made coil to start off their basket weaving project. Any students who do not finish in the session will be supplied with instructions and materials to complete their  project.

​​

This engaging program will explore the cultural significance of weaving in Aboriginal traditions, allowing participants to gain a deeper understanding of its historical and spiritual importance. Guided by our educator, students will have the opportunity to create their own woven pieces using natural materials.

​​

Through these workshops, we share the meditative and communal practice of weaving, reconnecting people with tradition, land, and each other - Yarning!
