Traditions From A Woman’s Hand – Female Carvers, Historic and Contemporary

April 11, 2022 By

$15.00

By Jersey Shore Folklife Center—Tuckerton Seaport & Baymen’s Museum:  The Tradition from a Woman’s Hand exhibit was a display at the Tuckerton Seaport from May 2010 to September 2011.  What binds these women together is a love of nature, of wood, and a traditional art that both connects them to the past and allows each of them to express her own unique creativity.  Through their work they have created a community of carvers among themselves and connected to the larger community of those who carve, paint, collect, and love decoys.  This catalogue represents artists from the original exhibit and is by no means an exhaustive list of women carvers from New Jersey and surrounding areas.
