Weaving Institute (2nd : 1931 : Penland, N.C.)

This article appeared in the 1931, November/December issue of "Handicrafter" magazine. It is a summary of the activities which were part of the August, 1931 Weaving Institute. Edward Worst led the weaving program and Lucy Morgan planned social activities for the institute, which was held on the campus of the Appalachian Industrial School. From 1923 to 1938 the Appalachian Industrial School served as the umbrella institution under which the Penland Weavers and Potters were organized and the Penland School of Handicrafts (now Penland School of Crafts) was established.
