Willow Basket Weaving Workshop

  • 824 Enright Avenue Cincinnati, OH, 45205 United States (map)

Come experience the magical wonders of weaving with Willow & Kudzu! 

Sunday, February 8th from 10-4pm @ the CPI Greenhouse: 824 Enright Ave. 45205

This is an exciting opportunity to learn to build and weave a beautiful, strong, and functional Ribbed Hand Basket with mostly willow and some kudzu vine. This one-day class will provide the skills and foundation for building a small to medium basket to take home and the ability to create future baskets! 

At the workshop, together we will:

  • Talk about Willow- growing, harvesting, using, storing, rehydrating, and its medicinal uses; Kudzu too 

  • Weave in community and connect in a way our ancestors did 

  • Observe as your own creative genius unfolds before your eyes ~ go from Willow whips to functional tool or basket art!

  • Connect with natural fibers and the living earth to build, create beauty, heal, commune together, gift, and live!
