Craft Hour: Tagua & Macramé In-Person
Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by learning about a special South American nut used for handicrafts -- then use some to make a bracelet!
Tagua, also known as "vegetable ivory," is a tropical tree nut that grows in clusters on the tagua palm in South American rainforests. The nut has a close grain and creamy white color that resembles ivory, which can also be dyed to bring out its marbled structure.
Artisans use the nut to make a variety of household items, including jewelry, buttons, chess pieces and umbrella handles.
Come learn about this sustainable natural resource and leave with a unique piece of jewelry!
Registration required. For ages 13 and up.
