Historic Weaving

Hands are weaving yarn around crossed sticks.

BASKETRY IS A SKILL THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN COMMONPLACE for historic settlers and other communities. For our Historic Weaving program, educators will teach about baskets and basketry, as well as present the opportunity for participants to practice some of these historic skills to make a woven ornament to take home.

Suitable for kids aged 5 and up; younger children are welcome but will need to have an adult to help. This activity is free with purchase of an adult ticket to the San Jacinto Museum. On San Jacinto Family Day, kids are admitted for free when accompanied by a parent or grandparent.
