West African Basket Weaving Workshop

​About Your Instructor: ebere agwuncha is an Igbo-American artist and educator born and based in Chicago, IL. Her artwork is an active vessel that is in conversation with various archives that connect to traditional techniques, methods, and materials of the Igbo-Nigerian, and adjacent African Diaspora, as a form of cultural preservation within a time where these practices are becoming obsolete. In the summer of 2025, ebere formally began the ‘woven together’ series with a calling to teach basket weaving to their community, in tune with their Igbo culture that transfers traditional craft skills locally.
