Marsella Jefferson's afternoon sweetgrass class offers a quieter, mid-afternoon entry point into this traditional Gullah craft, teaching the same coiling and binding methods passed down through her family for five generations. Students learn how each material - sweetgrass, pine needle, palmetto palm - contributes different properties to the structure and aesthetic of the finished basket. The 2.5-hour session welcomes students ages twelve and up with no prior weaving experience required.
