Forest Quiver Workshop - Dover Foxcroft, Maine

  • The Mill - Piscataquis Valley Adult Education Cooperative 8 Moosehead Lane Dover-Foxcroft, ME, 04426 United States (map)

Join us for a creative and rewarding day of traditional basket weaving in this Quiver Basket Workshop.

This woven reed quiver is a natural color and darker smoked reeds, that give the impression of a deep forest. Students can use different color reeds to personalize the basket. The quiver basket—tall, narrow, and often carried over the shoulder—is both beautiful and functional, originally used for carrying arrows, tools, or kindling. It can also be used for a wall piece, unique holder for dried flowers, walking sticks, or umbrellas.

It measures approximately 22″ tall with a 3.5″ inside diameter. A wood cookie is placed at the bottom of the quiver base to protect it from damage caused by arrowheads or other tools.

This is a beginner-friendly class; no prior experience required
