About the facilitator: 
Kimberly Crowley's story embodies the resilience of a timeless craft. As a Ho-Chunk Nation basket weaver, she carries on a family legacy that has supported generations, from her grandmother's hands to her own. Despite the threat to black ash trees from invasive species, Crowley continues to weave beauty from these ancient woods, preserving a cherished tradition that is both art and survival. With each basket, she honors her heritage and protects its future by teaching the next generation. 
From local communities to educational institutions like UW-Madison, Crowley shares her knowledge, with the help of her grandchildren. Her work, alongside that of her family, is celebrated in museums such as the Oshkosh Public Museum, Milwaukee Public Museum, and the Smithsonian.
