Longhouse Basket Workshop

As part of the Museums ongoing Reclaiming Cultural Identity initiatives, the Niagara Falls History Museum has teamed up with Kimberly White-Atkins of Talking Turtle Baskets for a Longhouse Basket Workshop.

Kimberly is Akwesasne Mohawk of the Turtle Clan. She has been making black ash and sweetgrass baskets for 11 years. She is passing down her knowledge to her children and hopefully to her grandchildren, so they may carry on the tradition of basket making.

Parking behind the Museum is currently under construction as we build our exciting new Culture Hub. Look for City parking lots off of Main Street, Ferry Street, and Peer Street. You will also find on-street parking throughout the neighborhood.
