Salem Arts Fest Drop-In Community Art Making: Nature Weaving
Know before you go
In person event
Location: Outside the museum’s main entrance on Essex Street
Free
Join us outside for community art making at the Salem Arts Festival!
Pick your favorite pieces from a variety of natural, biodegradable materials like sticks, cotton string, seashells, seaweed and grasses. Then, add your choices to a large-scale community creation by weaving them through a loom. Consider how we are all interconnected and how we can nurture connectivity within ourselves and the world around us.
This special activity is part of the Salem Arts Fest, but regular Drop-in Art Making is held in person Friday–Monday in our Create Space studios. Friday art making is recommended for ages 10 and up, while Saturday–Monday activities are suitable for ages 4 and up. Activities are created and led by PEM’s Learning and Community Engagement team and guest artists.
