This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

Here are a couple photos from last weekend's CODA conference. We were invited to a reception at the home of John and Robyn Horn and a small gathering is shown in front of the entertainment center I built for them in about 1997. The second photo shows a small gathering of some of the important persons of American crafts. From left to right, Jean McLaughlin, director of Penland, Andrew Glascow, director of the American Crafts Council, Dian Magie, director of the Center for Craft Creativity and Design, and David Willard, director of Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts.
Wow! Gorgeous woodwork, but then I have seen the desk you made for Eleanor. It's fabulous. It must have been a real privilege to be involved in this group's purpose! Congratulations!
