Traditional Weave Sewing Basket
Do you have an interest in Ojibwa culture and want more meaningful understandings of Indigenous histories and stories? Try this workshops with community leader and artist Jennifer Town. Workshops offer opportunities to create traditional handmade artworks and learn Ojibwa teachings, narratives and traditions.
Dress is a fundamental expression of personal identity and connection to family, their cultural values and the aesthetics for the Indigenous community.
Specific clothing styles signal family relations, social status, gender, age and marital status for women. Sewing renews the bonds by sharing techniques, preferred colours, styles and family patterns. Using traditional basket-making techniques, weave your own sewing basket to be passed down the generations of your family.
