from the Haslemere Educational Museum, Peasant Arts Collection |
A blog recording the Peasant Arts movement in Haslemere, Surrey, UK around the early 1900s, and it's founders Joseph King, Maude Egerton King, Godfrey Blount, Ethel Blount and Greville MacDonald. Arts and crafts, religion, literature, architecture, suffragettes, family trees, local locations and strong beliefs, this story has it all. Over a century later, their promotion of the pleasures of homemade craft is still relevant today.

Merry Christmas to you too. I look forward to more of your writing and research.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Happy New Year to you. 2017 should be a big year for the Haslemere Peasant movement, if the Haslemere Museum pursue the application for special collection status. So it's about time I finished off my research.
