Make A Corn Husk Figure
Wherever corn was grown as a crop, children in both Native American and Colonial American families used husks to fashion dolls. With a knowledgeable interpreter, fashion your own cornhusk figure - either boy or girl. Learn the legend of the cornhusk figure -- why did it not have a face? Participants receive a guided tour of the Walt Whitman Birthplace, including the room in which Whitman was born.
$6.75/person (minimum fee $100.00) - Estimated Time 1.5 hours
