This virtual workshop is for K-12 educators across multiple content areas. Confluence Professional Development’s (CPD) purpose is to educate teachers in the pedagogy of Indigenous curriculum and lessons. It is to prepare adults, teachers, and educators with a more perceptive understanding of Native American lifeways, history, cultural traditions, and ecology that define our Native identity.

Join us for a beginners level, cedar weaving workshop with Stephanie Craig. Stephanie is a Grand Ronde, seventh-generation basket weaver living with her family in her mother’s Kalapuyan traditional homelands and on her father’s 150 year old family farm. Students will learn two different weaving techniques, along with a start and rim, and learn proper gathering, processing, cleaning, and storage methods. Students will complete and take home a small finished woven basket by the end of the class.
