Basic Turkey Wing Workshop with Larry Antonuk
2024-05-25 06:00 - 12:00 | Meredith Fine Craft Gallery – League of NH Craftsmen, 279 DW Highway, Meredith, New Hampshire, 03253
Join artist Larry Antonuk at the League of NH Craftsmen – Meredith Fine Craft Gallery on Saturday, May 25th, 2024 from 10 am to 4 pm for a Basic Turkey Wing Workshop.

The art of broom-making reached its pinnacle in New England during the late 1800’s, driven mainly by the various Shaker museums. Before the industrial revolution most towns had several broom-making shops. The average farmhouse held over a dozen brooms of different styles, suited ideally to an individual task. In this class we’ll create some of the original designs, using authentic broom corn and other materials. What to expect: In this class you will learn the basic concepts of broom making by making small whisk brooms in a few different styles. You’ll get up to speed on the use of the “tumble spool,” the main tool of the small broom maker. You’ll leave with two or more brooms of your choice of style and color. Who should attend: Anyone interested in learning the basics of traditional broom-making. Note that moderate hand strength – along with some hand-eye-foot coordination – will make this a more enjoyable workshop. About the instructor: Larry Antonuk began his brooming journey in 2010 after watching a demonstration at the Enfield, NH Shaker Museum. He soon became an interpreter at the museum and began researching broom designs and building reproductions of both small and tall brooms. Larry is a juried broom maker with the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen and sells brooms at five Shaker museums in New England.
Tuition is $75 per student with an additional materials fee of $15 paid by cash or check to the instructor at the time of the class.
Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Those who wish to attend MUST sign up by Monday, May 20th. To register for this workshop, please call the League of NH Craftsmen – Fine Craft Gallery at (603) 279-7920 or stop by the gallery located at 279 Daniel Webster Highway in Meredith, NH.
