Molly Neptune Parker: Passamaquoddy Master Basketmaker
Molly is the 2007 Maine Arts Commission Traditional Artist Fellowship award winner, who talks about learning the tradition from her mother and then passing the tradition on to her children and grandchildren. She demonstrates how brown ash is prepared (splitting and gauging) for making fancy baskets and talks about the relationship of this tradition to her community and to the perpetuation of Passamaquoddy culture. Her grandson George is also featured in this segment.
