2018 Eric Taylor Workshop

Eric Taylor will be back in St. Louis again this May to teach three great classes over four days. Eric Taylor has been making traditional baskets and Shaker boxes since 1983. His love for working with wood and the black ash trees inspired him to experiment further in the art which lead to creating his own contemporary designs that combined the elements of the Shaker and Nantucket baskets. Eric has taught the art of basketry, nationally, for twenty-five years.
