\n12:00pm Workshop:<\/strong> Eco Acres Fiber Arts<\/a>: Learn cordage-making techniques using natural materials in a hands-on workshop led by educators Stephen Kraska<\/a> and Janet Kroboth-Weber<\/a>. Fiber Art is quite literally the tie that binds all else together. Learn how ancient people processed plants and trees into string, cordage, rope, nets, weaving, mats, baskets, clothing & more. In this workshop participants will learn how to make cordage and different styles of rope. Various methods with natural materials will be explored, plus discussion on respectful harvesting ethics. Along with exhibits and samples, an instructional demonstration allows participants to try hands-on techniques. Experiencing differences in textures and types of materials make this fun for learners of all ages. For more info visit: Eco Acres Stone Age Fibercraft: Tools & Techniques<\/a><\/p>\n
