SUMMARY:Harp Making
DESCRIPTION:Come build a Paraguayan harp. This harp is characterized by a large soundbox with a rounded base\, very light weight\, closely-spaced light tension strings (usually nylon)\, a relatively flat harmonic curve\, and with the strings running up through the center of the neck\, which are tuned with gear-style tuners (like a guitar). Almost all harps of this style are played with the fingernails\, in very rhythmically intricate music. This is the national instrument of Paraguay\, and is commonly found throughout South America\, Central America and in parts of Mexico. Students will be using tools from the past and today\, to fashion an instrument that will last a lifetime. After this class you may even want to learn to play your beautiful new harp!

SUMMARY:AFS Craft Sampler

Students will learn a new skill and create a new project every day! Please note: No a la carte registration for single day courses. Lodging and food is not provided.\nDay 1: Gathering Basket with Barbara Boughton This basket is woven on a pre-stained round oak base and employs continuous chase weave to build the sides. You will learn how to determine the number of spokes needed for continuous weave and watch your basket grow with two weavers. You will make your own leather handles which incorporate into the rim. Woven on a 6? base\, this functional basket grows into a 12? diameter basket with 10? sides.\nDay 2: Woven Towels with Janet Gallant One loom\, one warp\, so many possibilities! The looms are warped with a natural color and several towels can be woven on the loom. Several weaving patterns and design options will be demonstrated.
