30 mins Class size 10 to 100     label $25 - $35 ($25 per Weekdays, $35 per Weekends)

Learn how to make your very own armband or handle or link them together to make a community chain using traditional Aboriginal basket weaving techniques.

This session is designed as a team-building or cultural event programme.

Using the foundations taught to her, Peta-Joy shares her weaving skills to create your very own wearable woven piece. However, if you'd like something to hang and share in the office as a team builder, Peta-Joy offers an additional service to link each circle together.

Please note this is cultural knowledge, and while it is fine to participate in these sessions, it is not appropriate to share these skills with others outside of these sessions.
