Basket Weaving Demonstration

Join artisan Shari MacLeod for a live basket making demonstration showcasing the beauty and skill of hand-shaped weaving. Shari’s work is rooted in traditional construction techniques while also exploring the artistic possibilities of form, texture, and natural materials. Drawing inspiration from gathered elements like plants and stones, she incorporates these finds into her baskets, sparking new creative directions with each piece. Having begun her basketry journey in 1999 at Cape Breton Centre for Craft and Design, Shari brings decades of experience, curiosity, and craft knowledge to this engaging demonstration.
