“I felt full in this class. Amanda Lee is an expert teacher that sincerely loves people, is curious about the world, is open to everyone and creates a fun and interactive environment. She intuits different learning styles and is utterly without pretense. Her empathy with materials translates to empathy towards others.”
-Jess, former student & long time fiber teacher.
The craft of broom making is a skill I am delighted to share.
A unique way to engage in hand craft.
During class we talk about the role of the well loved tool
& weave broom making history into our time together as you bind your own broom.
This is a high engagement, hands- on experience.
