Misti Washington Gourd & Basket Weekend
The Misti Washington Gourd and Basket Guild presents the 12th Gourd and Basket Weekend. Throughout the weekend, 29 classes will offer students of all abilities the opportunity to show off and develop their basket weaving and decorative gourd skills.
There will be artisans and vendors with their creations and materials available for purchase, as well as displays. Seventeen instructors from around the country will offer classes ranging from Southern California Native American Basketry to Beading on a Gourd as well as Gnome Garden Stake Gourd.
Classes are designed for both beginners and the more advanced. As a background, Misti Washington, who our guild was named after, was a nationally known basket maker, gourd artist, craftswoman, teacher, and author who lived and worked in Solana Beach.
