First Friday Art Walk: Ange Muhorakeye

  • Orange Bike Brewing 31 Diamond Street Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

Born in a refugee camp in Burundi, Rwanda, Ange learned the art of basket weaving from both her nyogokuru (grandmother) and mama (mother).

Five years ago, Ange made the decision to leave Rwanda and move to the United States. At the airport in Rwanda, Ange’s mother passed to her a package of grasses with a needle and thread, and sent her off with the parting words of “Do not forget our culture.”

Join us in our Taproom to learn about Ange and her craft!
