Contemporary Appalachian Basket Making Demonstration

Brevard basket maker Joe Bruneau will demonstrate at Gallery of the Mountains. Bruneau, who studied art at Warren Wilson College, has been handcrafting contemporary Appalachian ribbed baskets for nearly 25 years. All baskets are made from locally sourced wood and hand-dyed reed. Gallery of the Mountains features American handmade craft by more than 100 local and regional artists of the Southern Appalachians. The gallery is located inside The Omni Grove Park Inn (Sammons Wing).
