ORIGINS

Craft traditions didn’t just appear, fully-formed and mature. Artists tie their work to early techniques and pass these practices on in a continuum of creativity. ORIGINS features Philip Simmons, potter Mark Hewitt, Vernon Owens, Pam Owens, and Travis Owens at Jugtown Pottery, beadwork artist Teri Greeves, weaver Jim Bassler, and glass artist Paul J. Stankard. PBS premiere: October 7, 2009.
