Split-Twig Figurines: Crafting and Archaeological Context
Lifelong Learning
Discover prehistoric marvels dating back thousands of years and predating the Ancestral Puebloan civilizations of the American Southwest. Originating primarily in the Colorado and Green River Basins, these artifacts hold profound cultural significance. Learn alongside a local archaeologist to craft the intricate Grand Canyon style of split-twig figurine, unraveling the mysteries of this ancient art form. You'll learn to split a natural willow cutting and form it into a deer figurine, similar to the ancient artifact. This class is only offered in autumn to correspond to the natural cycle of willow growth.
