Beanies, Baskets and Bushtucker Tours
A unique opportunity to spend time with traditional Aboriginal women and share their skills and knowledge as internationally renowned textile artists. The artists will teach you how to crochet mukata (beanies) or weave tjanpi (grass) baskets while sharing stories and bushtucker around the campfire.

Our tutors are Pitjantjatjara women who have been involved with theTjanpi Desert Weavers and our festival as both artists and teachers for many years. Once you have found the rhythm of your craft there will be opportunity to hear and share some of the women's stories, language and culture.

The workshops are being held at the gorgeous Alice Springs Desert Park.
Conference and group enquiries also welcomed.
