Cornhusk Mat Making
February 12, 2020 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm EST
An event every week that begins at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, repeating until February 26, 2020
Originally, Cornhusk Mats were placed at the doorway of longhouses with the braided side down, and the loose husk up for everyone to walk across before they entered. Corn, already important to our people, held special significance to clean off any negativity from anyone entering the longhouse. To this day, many people still lay these mats at the doorways of their homes to keep the energy good that’s coming in.
Join us for a fun and relaxing night making your own cornhusk mat: 6-8 pm
Teaching Lodge, CWC
