Make a Hawk Tail Hand Broom!
Select a date from the drop-down menu.

Hawk-tail brooms are a traditional, Shaker-inspired hand-tied folk art style that originated as a 19th-century alternative to bird wing whisks. This broom is characterized by a central, tail-like spine that fans out to mimic a hawk’s tail using broomcorn fibers. We will use century-old techniques and tools to create them. We will also include a decorative portion at the end of the class to customize each broom with accessories and essential oils.

Ages 13+ years and up is recommended.
Materials fee: $10 (cash) to be paid to instructor at the start of the workshop
