Bark Basket Weaving

  • MAKEbhm 4000 3rd Avenue South Birmingham, AL, 35222 United States (map)

Mondays, May 26 - June 16

Learn the basics of foraging, processing, and weaving with plant bark in this four-week introductory course led by Sarah Bell. You'll explore how and when to harvest and prepare bark, then dive into basketry techniques like weaving around a mold, forming handles (with the option to add a leather handle), and creating plaited designs. By the end of the class, you’ll leave with your own one-of-a-kind bark basket bag and a new appreciation for natural materials.
