Traditional Cedar Bark Hat Class Completed
February 16th-18th a traditional cedar bark weaving hat class with 17 participants was led by myself (DonnaRae James – Haida weaver) and helpers Linda Starbard and Gordon James Jr. (JR) of Washington.
Preparation with the bark and hat forms for each person was a must. I was fortunate enough to find someone to make 16 hat forms for the class.
A huge thank you to Lauren Peters who received a grant from Alliance for Traditional California Arts. The grant supported 10 hat kits of the 17 students.
