Craft Power! at the Baird Center, South Orange NJ Jan 14 / by Miriam Schaer

Last year I was fortunate to go to the Republic of Georgia twice, working with Clifton Meador and Melissa Potter, my friends and colleagues at Columbia College Chicago. In January we worked with women's groups to make artist books from felt-a local craft heritage. In June, I returned with Melissa to work more closely with Women's Fund in Georgia. Please join us on January 14, at 11.30 for lunch and an in depth look at craft and women's empowerment. Craft Power: Enhancing Women's Rights Through The Practice of Traditional Craft, is sponsored by the Book Arts Roundtable! Reservations are necessary and will cover the cost of lunch ($20/$15 for members of the  Book Arts Roundtable)  Call 973-761-7151 or email bookartsroundtable@gmail.com before Jan 1. Please join us!
