Basket Weaving Workshop with Tjanpi Desert Weavers

from $70.00

Imuna Kenta and Sylvanna Kenny from Tjanpi Desert Weavers will share their knowledge and guide you through the raffia basket weaving process. Tjanpi Desert Weavers is a social enterprise of the Ngaanyatjarra Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Women’s Council that enables women living in the remote Central and Western desert regions to earn an income from fibre art.

Workshops with the Tjanpi Desert Weavers are relaxed, joyful gatherings – as much about connection and conversation as they are about learning new skills. Once everyone has found the rhythm of the craft there is plenty of opportunity to share stories, ask questions, and even learn a little bit of Pitjantjatjara language. 

This workshop is suitable for participants at all skill levels.

Date: Sunday 7 September
Time: 2:00pm - 4:30pm
Cost: $90 / $70 conc
Duration: 2.5 hours
Location: JamFactory Boardroom
Level 1 (lift access available)
19 Morphett Street, Adelaide
