UPCOMING: Traditional Beading and Moccasin Making Workshops - February 9th and 10th, 2019

Come join us on February 9th and 10th for two very special workshops at Plenty Canada!

Jessie-Anne Sarazin from Pikwakinagan First Nation will be facilitating these events: 

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 9th: 
Traditional Beadwork
10:00 - 4:00pm
Plenty Canada (266 Plenty Lane, Lanark, ON)
Workshop fee: $50
Light refreshments will be provided; participants are encouraged to pack a lunch. 
Jessie-Anne will be teaching techniques for creating traditional Algonquin beadwork. Designs are beaded onto felt, which is then sewn onto an item (moccasins, clothing, bags). This workshop is open to anyone interested in creating a beaded design; they do not have to be specifically for moccasins. 

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 10th: 
Making Traditional Moccasins from Hide
10:00 - 4:00pm
Plenty Canada (266 Plenty Lane, Lanark, ON)
Workshop fee: $100
Light refreshments will be provided; participants are encouraged to pack a lunch. 
Participants will have the opportunity to learn hands-on skills on how to make a pair of traditional moccasins from deer hide or moose hide. Our deer and moose hides are sourced from Six Nations of the Grand River. Participants will leave with their very own pair of moccasins.

FEBRUARY 9TH & 10TH COMBO DISCOUNT:
​Participants who have created their beadwork on Feb 9th, and wish to make moccasins on Feb 10th, will get a reduced rate of $135 for both days! Please select the combo option at registration to receive your reduced rate
