With more than 200 members, the Columbia Basin Basketry Guild’s mission is to preserve, promote, and teach the art and appreciation of basketry. The exhibition is hand-curated and features fifteen member submissions that reflect the personal artistry of each member. Some use traditional techniques while utilizing nontraditional materials. Others begin with natural materials and diverge into modern weaving. Each piece brings a vision of weaving that is unique to the maker, while linked and informed by traditional l basketry and techniques. Viewers will see various forms of media including gathered natural and/or locally sourced recycled materials.
