 Calling all Cedar Weavers & Those Who Want to Learn!
We will be hosting a Traditional Cedar Hat Weaving Workshop with respected Kwakwaka'wakw Master Cedar Weaver, Tiger Leonard Williams, at the close of this year's West Coast Elders' Conference. This will be a chance to sit with a Master Weaver with everything prepared for you to Begin, Learn, Laugh and Finish a Cedar Hat following Kwakwaka'wakw This will be a chance to sit with a Master Weaver with everything prepared for you to begin, Learn, laugh and finish a Cedar Hat following Kwakwaka'wakw Tradition. We will share in laughter, learning and Kwak'wala language as we weave together to create works of wearable art you will be proud to wear. Traditional Weavers of the Northwest Coast each have their style, weaving techniques, designs, and practices. It is a skill passed down through generations, and Tiger Leonard Williams honours us with this gift. You will learn about the cultural and material significance of Cedar and gain hands-on experience. We have two workshops happening ongoing throughout the day: Our Cedar Hat Weaving Workshop runs from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with a Lunch Break from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. Our Bracelet Workshops run throughout the day. Drop in for bracelet times from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. You get to keep your bracelet and hat to enjoy for years to come. You will wear them with pride, knowing they were made by your hand! Note: the Queneesh Indigenous Society West Coast Elders' Conference is for First Nation, Métis and Inuit Elders Only. The Cedar Weaving Workshops on Thursday, May 29, 2025, are open to everyone. The workshops are held outside at the Crown Isle Resort in Courtenay, British Columbia.
