Weaving Connections through Basket Making
Bain, Christina
Art Education, v74 n6 p8-12 2021
What will each of us remember about life during a global pandemic? News of racial unrest, political protests, natural disasters, and skyrocketing COVID-19 rates gripped our attention. At work, I helped my department pivot to a predominantly online learning environment. At home, I quietly grieved over the death of my mother, as well as the passing of many others I had never met. During this tumultuous time, I drew solace from home improvement projects, gardening, and quilting. While I found these activities therapeutic, this article describes how developing a new skill in basket making went beyond simply serving as a welcome distraction for me; it provided new learning opportunities, connecting with others, and building resilience.
