Take a soulful pause from the busyness of life and sink into the meditative art of basket weaving. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to weave your own beautiful raffia basket and more importantly, you'll experience the deep joy of mindful making.
At first, you’ll focus on learning the technique feeling your hands move, your brain light up, and your creativity spark. Then, as you settle into the rhythm, the weaving becomes a moving meditation: your breath slows, your mind softens, and you find yourself fully present with each wrap and loop.
Basket weaving is the oldest craft and has been practiced by many different cultures. In this workshop you will receive a weaving kit with everything you need to create your basket. No experience needed just a love for creating with your hands and an open heart.
Whether you come to weave quietly and slip into a peaceful flow, or to connect and share stories with fellow makers, this workshop offers a nurturing space for both.
By the end, you'll walk away with:
Your own nearly-finished (as this is a practice of patience too) raffia basket
The skills to keep weaving at home
A deep sense of relaxation and accomplishment
CREATE, CONNECT AND WEAVE
