Our Native Quill Beading Class may have come to an end, but the knowledge, friendships, and beautiful creations will last for years to come.
Over the course of the class, participants learned the art of quillwork—from dyeing porcupine quills with vibrant colors to carefully weaving and stitching them into stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces. Every project reflected patience, creativity, and a deep appreciation for this traditional Indigenous art form.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and shared in this learning experience. It was inspiring to see each person's skills grow and to watch these beautiful works of art come to life.
Miigwech to our instructor, Alanna Doxtator, for sharing her knowledge and helping preserve this important cultural tradition. We look forward to offering more opportunities to learn, create, and celebrate Native arts together.
