Berkeley County Library System (BCLS) continues to collaborate with the Wassamasaw Tribe of Varnertown Indians, a State Recognized Tribe, to co-host the continuing series, Native American Culture Class. The next class, Buffalo Bone Bead Native Chokers, will be on Saturday, October 15th, from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm at Goose Creek Library. All supplies provided.
Tammy Leach, Cultural Preservationist, from the Wassamasaw Tribe of Varnertown Indians, will teach participants the tribe’s techniques in Regalia. Participants are required to register at berkeleylibrarysc.libcal.com/event/8932393 to attend this class due to limited seating.
“Regalia is a powerful mode of self-expression that blends historical and modern dress,” says the Facebook event page from Wassamasaw Tribe of Varnertown Indians. “Worn with responsibility and pride, the clothing represents community traditions and personal tastes.”
