Weaving -- Appalachian Region, Southern

The Appalachian Hand Weavers were 25 years old when the survey was taken. F. P. Bacon directed the business which sold to individuals and shops. Page 5 was left blank and so is not included here. Questionnaires like this one were the raw data for the exploratory study of the Craft Education Project, a joint undertaking by the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild and the Southern Highlanders, Inc. Marian Heard was hired to oversee the planning phase that involved visiting artists and determining the needs of the craftworkers. Her results, often referred to as "The Heard Report," were published as the "Report of an exploratory study looking toward a craft education project ...." The preliminary project led to an educational program funded by the General Education Board.
