Jicarilla Basket Workshop

Since 2014, the Heard Museum has regularly worked with Native artists and communities in New Mexico each year. Recently, the museum traveled to Dulce, New Mexico, for a basket workshop with Jicarilla Apache artists and youth. The week-long class led students through the history of basket making in the community and instructed them in identifying materials, splitting, sizing, weaving, and finishing a willow basket.
