To see craft is to enter a world
of wonderful things which can be challenging, beautiful, sometimes useful,
tactile, artistic and extraordinary - and to understand and enjoy the care
which has gone into their making. Contemporary craft is about
making hand crafted objects of art and ensures the highest standard of
workmanship exhibiting a working knowledge of tools and materials.
The Marblehead Arts Association (MAA) is presenting “Fine Art of Craft”, an exhibit
from March 16-April 21. The opening reception is Sunday, March 17, 2-4pm.
This juried exhibit has invited MAA and non-MAA artisans in the general
categories of ceramics/pottery; fiber/textile; metalwork/silversmith;
woodwork/furniture and glass and the creative overlap or blending of these mediums.
