Sweetgrass 101: The Basics of Sweetgrass Basket Weaving with Barbara McCormick: Have you had an interest in the Lowcountry art of sweetgrass basket weaving? This is the class for you. This four week course will provide additional knowledge of sweetgrass basket weaving as well as hands-on experience by creating the two (round and oval) traditional sweetgrass baskets shapes in the class. Sweetgrass baskets are coiled with sweetgrass and Southern long-leaf pine needles and lashed with strips of palmetto. Techniques taught will enable the students to design a variety of shapes and sizes of sweetgrass baskets. This is an art form stemming from West Africa more than 300 years ago. Materials fee of $50. Required tools: scissors. Additional tools will be provided during class.
