The Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts

Weekly on Tuesdays, October 27-November 17, 2026, 6pm-9pm

Create functional baskets and sculptural forms using the hexagonal weave, a strong and versatile pattern rooted in the geometry of the hexagon. Students will explore traditional basketry techniques while working with both natural and synthetic materials to create open hex weaves and mad weaves.

Through hands-on experimentation with structure, pattern, and form, participants will craft 2–3 finished baskets and/or sculptural pieces to take home.
