About the event

Join us at Lunt Meadows for a workshop to learn the art of making baskets the way people would have thousands of years ago. Archaeologists will discuss the different materials people in the middle stone age would have used, why they made baskets in this way and can answer any other questions you have about the time period.

No prior experience is required. This event will ideally take place outdoors (but will be indoors if the weather is poor) so please wear sturdy outdoor footwear and dress for the weather.
