This meeting will start at 2:00 pm, room 407 at the Heights Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Albuquerque. At this NMGS gathering, Ann Reilly will be teaching a small basket mask. The NMGS will provide the gourds, baskets, paints, feathers and cording so that you will be able to go home with a finished basket mask suitable for hanging. The basket sizes vary from 3" to 4" and are crafted with various colors and motifs. They are very sturdy and will make a welcome addition to your gourd collection. Best of all, you will have made it yourself. Join us for this June gathering. A notice will be sent out in mid-May asking you to let us know if you will be attending so that the right number of kits will be available for all who wish to participate.
