Rhode Island School of Design’s Continuing Education is sponsoring 2 meaty days of class covering American Indian baskets, textiles, pottery, beadwork and jewelry 9 am – 5 pm. Their campus is in Providence, Rhode Island.
Cost is $395 for both days during which time tribal identification, dating, value characteristics will be covered along with conservation issues. Known fakes will be presented for your physical examination. A reading list will be provided with our best picks highlighted.
Kateri Weiss will cover beadwork and jewelry with acumen, due to her 40 plus years of experience as a collector and conservator of both. Corinne’s experience stems from her involvement as Gallery 10’s first director (1978) and before as a kid who was charmed by baskets, as well as over 20 years as an appraiser of American Indian arts.
15 attendee maximum, with just 3 spots remaining available !
Call Tiffany Bowman at 401 454-6499 tbowman@risd.edu if you would like to take advantage of this opportunity.
It is my understanding that most of the attendees are appraisers, but collectors might avail themselves of this information as well. We ask that you bring a 10 power loop to assist with your viewing experience.
Call here if you have any questions, 602 906 1633 Corinne
