The Tunica-Biloxi Tribe’s Language and Culture Revitalization Program (LCRP) will host its 3rd Annual Intertribal Basketry Summit.
Tunica-Biloxi tribal members and accomplished weavers from other American Indian communities in the region will demonstrate southeast basket traditions using longleaf pine needle, river cane and palmetto. The Summit will be an informal forum allowing weavers to talk about their own technique and elements of their culture represented in the craft.
***The event is open to the general public, FREE of charge, to observe the Native American weavers work their magic. Those wishing to take the pine needle basket weaving class will pay $20 registration, which also includes the cost of lunch for class participants***
