Jean Stamsta, Weaver

Monday, 23 Jan 1978 at 12:00 pm – Pioneer Room, Memorial Union

Stamsta's work centers on weaving. In 1974 she received the national Endowment for the Arts Craftsmen's Fellowship Grant. Deviating from traditional wall hangings, some of her weavings are three-dimensional, freestanding woven sculptures. In addition to her weaving, Stamsta does consulting on the subject across the country. She is the special guest for the Clay and Fiber Show at the opening reception 2-5 pm. Sunday, January 22 at The Octagon.
Part of the National Affairs Series
