Indigenous Peoples’ Day Craft Camp for Kids, 7-12yrs! In this half-day Craft Camp, kids will explore craft making and corn! First Nations Peoples of North America have been masters of art and craft for thousands of years. One very humble but beautiful craft is their functional arts using corn and corn husks. After corn is ripened and harvested it needs to be fully dried. To do this the husks were carefully braided to form a long strong strand. The braided strands were then hung in their dwellings for safe keeping. A side benefit is the braids are beautiful works of art that doubles as a highly nutritious food for later use. Another creative use for some of the leftover corn husks is corn husk figures. These could vary from female dolls with colorful dresses to stout men figures with traditional simple clothing. These figures could be for children’s play toys or ceremonial gatherings. This class will share techniques on how these hand made crafts come to life. Students will take home the corn husk figures and corn braid they make. OPTIONAL | Crafty Lunch Hour: Click here to read more & add the lunch break. Need a full day of Camp support?
