Sweetgrass Basket Class ✨ (SOLD OUT)

October 19 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! 🥳

🧺 Love sweetgrass baskets and always dreamed of making one yourself?

🧺 Now’s your chance! Join us for an exclusive class with the renowned Andrea Cayetano-Jefferson, a Charleston-based artist behind Gullah Sweetgrass Baskets. Recently featured in Southern Living Magazine and with her work showcased at the Smithsonian, she brings her incredible talent and tradition right to you!

🧺 Learn the art of sweetgrass basket weaving, a cherished Gullah tradition using Lowcountry sweetgrass, bulrush, pine needles, and palmetto fronds. This craft, passed down through generations, traces its origins to West Africa.

🧺 You’ll create your very own basket starting with a 5-inch-wide base, and you’ll get to choose from two colors to craft a beautiful and unique piece!

With limited spots, don’t miss this opportunity to take home a piece of Gullah culture!
