FOOD & CRAFT DEMONSTRATIONS

pickling traditions
Pickling is a method of preserving food that is found in many cultures and usually
involves brine, vinegar, spices, and fermentation. Vegetables, fruits, meats, fish, and
nuts are often pickled alone or mixed together in various ways to keep food for
out-of-season eating. Traditionally, pickling was a way of ensuring food sources for
those working far from the comforts of home on land and sea, no matter the climate.
Today, many home cooks in the region use the bounty of their gardens and local
markets to pass on favorite recipes and preserve their foodways throughout the year.
Textiles are all around us. Both utilitarian and decorative, textiles can be as varied as
clothing, containers, bed coverings, wall hangings, and floor coverings. Textiles serve
as both functional items for everyday use and as finery for special occasions.
Here in the folk craft area you will have a chance to watch traditional techniques used
in the making of textiles: twining, coiling, weaving, quilting, hooking, and lace making.
We also explore how textiles are used in what is called the “unstitched garment,” i.e.,
wrapping Indian saris, African headwraps, and Islamic headscarves. You will discover
how the pattern of a textile’s weave, its thread count, and the way it is worn can convey
religious belief, marital status, wealth, or social standing.
