SUMMARY:Sweetgrass Basketmaking Class
DESCRIPTION:SWEETGRASS BASKETMAKING CLASS\n\n\n	Ages: All Ages\n	Duration: 3 Hours    1:00 pm - 4:00 pm\n	Class size: Limited to 10 students - Minimum class size is 4\; if minimum is not met\, then class will be rescheduled\n\nListen to stories of the art of sweetgrass in Georgetown\n\nSweetgrass basket making was brought to the South Carolina Lowcountry by enslaved people who were taken from West Africa. It has been a traditional art form passed on from generation to generation  from mother to daughter to granddaughter. During the days of slavery\, rice cultivation and the flourishing plantations of the Old South\, these baskets were in great demand for agricultural purposes.\n\n\n\nKey Points About This Workshop:\n\n  Learn the traditional row upon row method of coiled basketry with sweetgrass\, pine needles and palmetto\, and learn how to use the "bone" to divide the sweetgrass and build the next row. All materials are included and each student completes a small basket and takes home a cherished memory.\n\n\n\nMany people spend the day with us\, beginning with a morning tour\, lunch or tea\, and then making a basket. In addition\, students can also choose to get guaranteed seating in the tea room on the day of their tour along with their tickets.\n\n\n\nProvided by Hopsewee Plantation
