Two Cat Kitchen travels to the Saunderstown Weaving School in Saunderstown, RI for this exciting episode! We talk with Norma Smayda, founder of the school, about its origins and history and some of the programs they offer. The library at the Weaving School has more than 2300 books in its collection as well as many other items and is a significant resource for weavers and scholars. We check in with Betty Rozum, a librarian who has been working with Norma to catalogue the collection and make it more accessible to students at the school and other weavers. We also hear some traditional weaving songs from years gone by. Join us this episode for a fascinating glimpse into the world of weaving!
