This workshop shows a traditional craft that is designed to teach traditional Native values and the art of corn husk creations,
a natural resource from Mother Earth.
This workshop explores how baskets, the creative process and the natural resources used to create them have played an
important role in history and culture of Pequot people. The workshop highlights the different creative styles of basketry,
addresses invasive species, such as the Emerald Ash Borer beetle and its effects on the traditional art.
Participants will create a take-home craft utilizing traditional basket designs and basket weave patterns.
Do you know why archaeology is sometimes called “our window to the past”? Students discover the answer to this question
in a hands-on enrichment program. Students are divided into small groups to work with simulated refuse heaps from three
different time periods in Pequot history. Their task is to identify and interpret artifacts from each time period, understand why
cultures change over time and the reasons for change.
