Morris Muskett to Offer Classes in Weaving

posted in Learn to Weave!, Workshops |

Weaver and silversmith Morris Muskett is offering classes in Navajo and allied weaving techniques.

Albuquerque, NM Master weaver and silversmith Morris Musket is beginning to offer classes in Navajo and other indigenous weaving techniques.  He is currently working with one private student and will work with you to arrange classes in the Albuquerque-Santa Fe area.  He’s also willing to do combined class/tour events and will travel to your area by arrangement.

Morris is extremely knowledgeable in the history and breadth of Navajo techniques and incorporates ideas and influences from other creative traditions into his very original work.  He is a wonderful ambassador for and interpreter of the Navajo culture and his willingness to teach creates a powerful new opportunity for students to both expand and deepen their weaving experience.   You can read more about Morris’ thoughts on teaching at his web site and you can contact him for more information on the curriculum that he’s developing. Pssst, he’s offering you the chance to meet Noel Bennett and Ramona Sakiestewa!

    Raymon: I have a blanket simialr to the pink blanket. My dad's family had sheep. Every year they would gather the wool and take it to Utah Woolen mills and make beautiful wool blankets. Similar to Pendleton blankets, in many different colors. Love the turquoise jewlrey. My mom has a big beaded bag of it that I hope I get a few peices of (she's half Native American) She finds it kind of amusing that Native American prints etc. are "in" right now.

    Remigio: Way to go, Navajo Nation! Either cease-and-desist, or collect roiaetyls for the use of your name (only on quality products of which you approve, of course). Same with sports teams that use Native names as mascots. Until recently, the University of North Dakota was paying the Standing Rock Sioux annual roiaetyls to use the name Fighting Sioux , which was a win-win and a source of pride for both parties. Unfortunately for both the Tribe and the university, political correctness put an end to that.

    Ann Puzio: Hi Mary, Need to change to the waiting list for 9/13-20th. I hope this is possible.Also, going to see if I can sign up for the online class, need to check my computer. Thanks ann
