Join Martin Alexander for a hands-on workshop on the traditional craft of broom making. Learn to create a beautiful and functional turkey wing whisk broom. Its unique shape and intricate construction make it a conversation piece as well as a useful tool. These brooms are made with natural broomcorn, a type of sorghum grass that is known for its durability and flexibility. Martin will teach you the traditional techniques for binding and shaping the broomcorn to create a sturdy and attractive broom. You will leave with a deep appreciation for this craft as well as two new brooms to enjoy for years to come. Take home one for yourself and gift one to a lucky friend!

All materials and supplies are included.
