Free at PAMM: Weave Bahamian Braids in Clay with Your Kids
Kids and parents sit at the same table, rolling clay into the braid patterns Bahamian grandmothers once wove from palm leaves.
🏺 Weaving with Clay as a Family
PAMM opens the whole building free on the second Saturday of every month, and the November 14 edition brings families together around the worktables. Bahamian artist Anina Major shapes ceramics from straw plaiting—the palm-leaf braid Bahamian grandmothers once wove—reimagining that woven rhythm in wet clay. Kids and parents sit at the same table, rolling clay into braid coils and pressing patterns together to tell their own family stories. Hands-on art making runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is free all day, and the galleries stay open until the 4:30 p.m. Saturday close, giving families plenty of time to wander the waterfront collection after their clay dries. Reserve a free spot ahead on the museum registration page.
