About the badges
Art
This merit badge concentrates on two-dimensional art, specifically drawing and painting in various media, including an introduction to design applications in the fields of graphic arts and industrial design, history and design principles, and how these fields relate to fine art.
Basketry
Basketry is a handy skill for a Scout. A basket can be a sturdy companion on campouts, carrying clothes, holding potatoes and corn for roasting over a campfire, or bringing the day’s catch back to camp. Baskets and basket-weaving projects also make great gifts for family and friends.
Signing up
Your unit leader registers each Scout for classes in MyCouncil when your week's registration opens in late April. Classes fill up, so list a second and third choice for each session.
