Bring the whole family for an afternoon of hands-on creativity and island inspiration! Discover the incredible ceramic artwork of Bahamian artist Anina Major, who takes the tradition of straw plaiting—a style of Bahamian palm-leaf weaving passed down through generations—and playfully reinvents it with clay to honor the knowledge, labor, and cultural memory embedded within this ancestral craft. Together, kids and grown-ups will explore how artists keep heritage alive, transform natural traditions into bold new forms, and find colorful ways to tell their own family stories.
