Discover the art of making handmade brooms with Wisconsin broom maker Little John Holzwart. In this class we will make a Hawktail whisk and a Fantail whisk (also known as a turkey wing). These little brooms are perfect for those tight places. Shorter broomcorn has been selected for these smaller brooms, and all materials are provided. Discussion about decorative options will be included.

Participants should refrain from wearing open-toed shoes and should bring a sharp knife and scissors.
