Basket Weaving Workshop

April 8, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

$100.00

Instructor: Kathy Petronzio

Kathy started weaving in a local class while living in South Carolina, and very quickly fell in love with basketry.  She quickly expanded her education while in Japan on deployment  with her husband and sons; she was invited to study with local  master weavers and soon began actively teaching classes. She is influenced by her love and intricacy of Japanese basketry as  well as the beauty, tradition and usefulness of Nantucket and Shaker basketry. She has and continues to exhibit in shows across the Northeastern United States, both group and juried art exhibits and teaches in Massachusetts, Virginia and North Carolina.
