Hand-Tied Brooms

Saturday, November 4 | 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Crafts, Brooms, Broommaking, DIY

Join us to learn a heritage craft that links us to a 200-year tradition of broom making at Pleasant Hill. In this workshop you will begin by making smaller brushes and progress to creating a Turkey Wing broom (a hand-tied variation of a traditional flat broom). Learn to wrap, tie and finish hand-made brooms just like the Shakers did.

All necessary materials are provided. No experience necessary and all levels are encouraged to join.

Annual Passholder: $65
Non-Annual Passholder:
$75
