Summer Art Pop Up: Baby Birch Boat
August 3, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
BUILD A BABY BIRCH BOAT with Leisha Neuman. Peeling birch bark (and obviously writing on it!) is almost a rite of passage when you grow up in the north. Whether you’re a seasoned pro, or you haven’t even heard of the birch tree, come experience the beauty of working with birch bark as we make small birch canoes! Participants will come away with their own canoe, as well as the tools and know-how to create more birch pieces in the future. Part of our Summer Art Pop-Ups, offered in partnership with Future North.
Supplies are limited for this workshop so we encourage you to RSVP your attendance here: https://forms.gle/VWJcrrxQE8HXc7BBA
