Hand Broom Making Workshop

Make a Turkey Wing Hand Broom!

Sunday, May 25, 10 a.m. - 1 p.m.

A Turkey Wing hand broom is an epic example of Appalachian folk art. It could be considered a functional tool or a decorated art piece. These brooms are made with natural broomcorn. Instructor AB will teach you the traditional techniques for binding and shaping the broomcorn, which is made from sorghum, to create a fun and unique experience…others call it a spiritual occurrence. Let’s sweep it up.

Ages 13+ years and up is recommended.
