SUMMARY:Harp Making
DESCRIPTION:Come build a Paraguayan harp. This harp is characterized by a large soundbox with a rounded base\, very light weight\, closely-spaced light tension strings (usually nylon)\, a relatively flat harmonic curve\, and with the strings running up through the center of the neck\, which are tuned with gear-style tuners (like a guitar). Almost all harps of this style are played with the fingernails\, in very rhythmically intricate music. This is the national instrument of Paraguay\, and is commonly found throughout South America\, Central America and in parts of Mexico. Students will be using tools from the past and today\, to fashion an instrument that will last a lifetime. After this class you may even want to learn to play your beautiful new harp!

SUMMARY:Spinning Yarn from Wool
DESCRIPTION:Janet’s woven items often start with unique one-of-a-kind hand spun yarns. Spend an evening and see how she starts with wool from a variety of sheep and adds some bamboo or sparkle to create a blend of fiber to spin into thick or thin single ply yarn. After spinning again\, a simple yarn is created\, or texture and coils can be added to create an “art yarn” that looks wonderful when used to weave or knit.

SUMMARY:Traditional Herbal Practice: Wildcrafting-Plants of Summer
DESCRIPTION:The wheel of the year turns again\, and the heat is on! The plants of summer invite us to tap into the full potential of opening the abundance within our heart through working with our hands. Let’s connect with nature and what she’s offering us at this time of the year\, while engaging in the traditional practice of wildcrafting plants at peak for the purpose of caring for our bodies in and out. In this course we will discuss the Celtic festival of Lughnasadh\, as well as the essence & traits of this season. We will harvest and then take our bounty into the classroom for making preparations using traditional herbal practices. In this make and take experience\, you can expect to go home with two herbal preparations based on what is alive\, at peak\, and available for harvest. While it’s impossible to predict “who” will be available for us to work with\, what I can share is that in past summer classes we’ve made: Wild Plant Medicinal Infusions\, On the Spot Plant Poultices\, Plant infused Oil to treat skin irritations\, Salve for bug bites and stings. Please inform us ahead of time if you have any allergies.
