Behind the Scenes at Basketry Garden at Marin Art and Garden Center
Time: 5:00pm - 6:30pm
Basket-weaver-in-residence Charlie Kennard will show us a variety of his intricate pieces created from many of the plants that he grows at Marin Art and Garden Center or gathers around the North Bay. An admirer of traditional techniques, Charlie always comes across new challenges to take on, inspired by an old basket or by a blurry photograph sent by a student.
After his talk, which will be held at the newly-renovated Redwood Amphitheater, we will have the opportunity to tour the basketry garden that Charlie has created on the hillside adjacent to the Amphitheater and learn how the plants are cultivated to produce suitable weaving material. His woven fences and many giant baskets are featured throughout the garden.
