Jennifer Neptune began doing beadwork as a teenager with a focus on designs from the 18th and 19th century. She will research and create a reproduction of a traditional Penobscot peaked cap. She will demonstrate the design techniques at Maine Indian Basketmakers Alliance events, and, once finished, will make it available for tribal ceremonies, schools, and exhibits.
