The downtown events calendar lists a broom-making workshop at Five Points Garden for Sunday, October 25, at noon. It is an unusual hands-on craft that blends practical design with traditional construction techniques.
The intriguing maker question is how a bundle of flexible fibers becomes a durable tool through binding, shaping and a handle. That could inspire experiments with 3D-printed jigs or handle fittings, though the workshop itself is a traditional craft activity.
The calendar does not establish price, available seats or material requirements. Check the organizer details before making the trip; do not assume it is free.
