SUMMARY:Make a Native American Medicine Pouch
DESCRIPTION:A Native American medicine pouch is a container for items believed to protect or give spiritual powers to its owner. The medicine bag is considered a very precious possession which represents a person’s spiritual life and its contents are generally considered holy by the tribal community. The bags might be very plain or richly decorated and are meant to give guidance\, good luck\, good health\, protection\, abundance and even love to the individuals who carry them. Students will cut leather and shape their pouch as desired\, then stitch with imitation sinew. A rawhide cord will be used to hang the pouch and can be attached using one of two different methods. It can then be decorated with beads\, antler or feathers. Children who are 12 years of age and older are welcome.

SUMMARY:Shaker Cat Head Basket
DESCRIPTION:The Shaker Community\, founded in New York\, is known for its design aesthetic\, combining form and function in simply elegant ways. This class introduces students to the Cathead base\, a Shaker classic. In this form\, a small\, square base grows into a round basket\, at the diameter and height of the student’s choosing. This particular technique of weaving corners produces four “feet” upon which the basket rests. This creates a raised base on the inside of the basket\, allowing its contents to first fill the perimeter of the basket\, and then the center. Disbursing the weight of the basket contents\, first to the perimeter\, serves to prevent produce from becoming bruised and protects the center of the basket from wearing out. Students will weave a two-by-two twill pattern for both the base and the sides of the basket.
