I spent the entirety of last night watching the debut of PBS’ Craft in America; a three part series that uses the topics of memory, landscape, and community to discuss the many facets of craft.
Overall, it was a lovely 3 hours. The show(s) did an excellent job of showing a variety of crafts as well as a variety of people. There were moments when I thought some “cowboy” dude was a bit of an ass, moments when I wondered why most of the women shown didn’t mention significant others while men did, and moments when I was in awe. Perhaps a bit of reminiscing when they talked about the history and impact of Penland…
