Cradfting a New Home: Refugee Artisans of Worcester
This is a small but beautiful exhibition held in the Krikorian Gallery at the Worcester Center for Crafts. Much of the crafts are handwoven textiles produced by women from Southeast Asia. The colors and patterns are interesting and much different than those produced by European craftpersons. In addition, there are baskets woven by men and women from Southeast Asia and Africa. The designs, colors and shapes are very interesting, including birdhouses as well as baskets of different forms. One of the artisans also wove a bamboo bicycle which was a surprise. There are also sculptures of clay which are very interesting. The show extends to Feb. 29, 2020 and it is free to the public. The time is from 10 am to 5 pm.
