My 18-month old grandson weaving his first basket!

​This is a fabulous place to visit with a young child. The Activity Center has many interactive exhibits, including basket making.

 HAND/EYE is ​a beautiful on-line journal​ "​dedicated to global creativity​, with​... the ​focus on the work of artists, artisans, designers, and other creatives, unfettered by traditional definitions of art, craft and design.​"​

In this week's issue, they re-printed the blog I wrote for the Weave A Real Peace. (You can read it in the post just below.)

They included many images of the pieces I created that were inspired by my work in Ghana. You can check it out here.

In 2010, Hand/Eye included another article about my time in Pokuase, Ghana, working with women to create a cooperative crocheting and selling bags made of discarded plastic bags. 
​

Read about it here.
