In response to COVID-19, all in-person events at all of our campuses, including the Ross River Campus, have been cancelled until June 30. However, we are still available via email, phone and video-conference.
This course provides instruction in the traditional arts of moose hair and caribou hair tufting, porcupine quill work, and fish scale art. Instruction will include the collection, cleaning, dyeing and storing of these natural materials and the tools and supplies required for each art form.
To build on their artistic skills, students will apply the knowledge, skills, and techniques learned in the program’s art courses to design and construct a variety of products and small crafts. Emphasis will be placed on product development for the marketplace.
Distance learning, or online learning, provides students with access to class instruction over the Internet, rather than in a classroom.
