Join us for Hand-Woven Heritage Broom workshop! 

Learn how to make your own Hand-Woven Heritage Broom, the way brooms were made over 200 years ago!  

Whether a floor broom, hearth broom, or flying broom, these one-of-a-kind sweeping beauties are as beautiful as they are practical, for use on floors, sidewalks, decks, patios, or simply for display as unique pieces of centuries-old folk art.

Join foothills broom-maker, David Campbell for six hours of fun, hands-on instruction after which you’ll have made a hand-woven broom that is as much a unique conversation piece as it is a fully functional sweeper — one that you made yourself!  

David is one of six heritage broom makers in Canada, and the only one to teach broom-making workshops.  We feel lucky to have him!
