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 (a hand-tied variation of a traditional flat broom). Learn to wrap, tie and finish hand-made brooms just like the Shakers.

All necessary materials are provided.

No experience necessary and all levels are encouraged to join.

Price: $45 per person

As the snow melts away we are reopening the Preserve, Tours, The Inn & The Trustees' Table. Please be aware the trails are still wet & muddy. Help us be good stewards of the land by refraining from hiking/riding through wooded areas or trails along the Shawnee Run Creek. pic.twitter.com/HI4Gq2MLfJ

In our blog on launching exhibits we explore how to tell a meaningful story. There are many steps involved like narrowing your focus, doing tons of research, selecting artifacts to display (like the image of the mill) & determining the flow of the exhibit. l8r.it/TFla pic.twitter.com/kyPdNxMPVg
