Our family continues to celebrate cornhusk as an ancient and authentic art form. Working with cornhusk is like reaching back in time and working in a medium that has been unchanged since time immemorial.
This tiny shop is packed with accurate and authentic expressions of culture. We are located at the Iroquois Village Plaza, 1721 Chiefswood Road, Ohsweken.
Artwork on display include beadwork, candles, cornhusk dolls, dioramas, greeting cards, jewelry, paintings and much more. Prices and gift ideas to suit all budgets.
As an art medium, cornhusk is a pure catalyst to our ancestors. Working with cornhusk is like reaching across centuries and creating something that looks, smells, and feels the same as it always has.
Cornhusk is traditionally used for a variety of things and events, including ceremony, cooking and toys. Cornhusk creates a connection to our ancestors. Corn is still grown and harvested, and the husk is still braided for storing corn the same as it has been for thousands of years and over many generations.
We use cornhusk to celebrate our stories and remind everyone of the rich cultural teachings and values that are depicted with and protected by cornhusk.
