When she lectures, Ed Johnetta Miller talks about how she gets up the next morning to look at her work, and she says, “If it doesn’t make my heart sing, I take my scissors and cut up the quilt and rearrange it until I feel like my heart is zooming along.”

About Ed Johnetta Miller:
Ed Johnetta Miller is an internationally recognized quilt/fiber artist working with color, pattern, and textures of fabric. She enjoys the freedom, movement and power given to creating the sculpture of cloth. Combining the various colors, patterns and weaves of fabric is very exciting to her, and she tries to make each quilt as simple, essential, and direct as she can. She wants viewers to be able to visually enter her quilts and walk through fields of color to the still, contemplative space within.
Ed Johnetta’s work is like a spiritual journey that allows her to return to the dye table, sewing machine, quilting studiously after day with renewed anticipation of what beauty will evolve. At times, she is surprised with the results of a work that seems to have a life of its own, in spite of her intent. This reminds her of the truth that she is not in control of the process, she simply guides it. Ed Johnetta wants her quilts to reflect her positive view of life, as well as her love of fabric. For her, life is enriched with diverse experience and amazing opportunities that should be embraced and shared.
Widely exhibited in the United States and internationally, Ed Johnetta’s quilts can be found in numerous important museums, and private collections such as the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Museum of Art, Washington DC, The Contemporary Quilt Museum, Golden Colorado, The Wadsworth Museum of Art, Hartford Ct., Nelson’s Mandela’s National Museum, Cape Town, South Africa, Safeco Corporation, Johnson & Johnson Corporation, Hartford Hospital, Michigan State University, Yale-New Haven Children’s Hospital, US Embassy in Cotonou, Benin, WestAfrica; and in 2019, she was commissioned by theWest Hartford Art League to design five quilts for a mural project on the grounds of the Art League.

Book Creations with Gay Ayers
2023-05-16 11:00 - 14:00 (America/New_York) | WDS Museum, 211 Main Street, Wethersfield, CT, 06109
Want to have some fun with folding and stitching your own small books using beautiful papers? Join artist Gay Ayers to make accordion books. You will learn how to fold them, make covers, stitch inserts, and have these creative endeavors for yourself, journals, or gifts. You can later put in photos, poems, recipes, or watercolors. Bring home at least two handmade books! Materials provided. Bring lunch and a good pair of scissors. Space is limited to 10 participants.
Ancient accordion-folded books have been around for centuries, having found them in China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, India, and Burma. Book artists in this country often use this form for their art. The second style of book that also has Asian roots is the Japanese Stab Stitch Binding. It is a simple non-adhesive binding that is an excellent introduction to book binding. It’s a good place to start and can be used in numerous ways, such as travel journals. The stitching patterns on the cover can add ornamentation, as well as beads that we will incorporate. The uses are varied: gifts, journals, and objects of beauty.
NSCDA-CT & Museum Members: $40 / General Public: $50. Purchase workshop HERE.
About Gay Ayers
As a visual artist of a variety of things, such as book artist, paper artist, calligraphy, photography, miniature book collector and more, Gay is constantly creating and thinking up new structures or figuring out how others might have made something. She enjoys sharing ideas with others so that they, too, can find their own creativity, having taught in schools, art workshops, libraries, small and large groups.
Gay’s background consists of studying with many well-known artists, calligraphers, and photographers. She has, at times, taken yearlong classes with these people. For years she has attended International Calligraphy Conferences, which brought together teachers from the U.S.A., Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia. This led Gay to study in Wales with Donald Jackson, O.B.E., the calligrapher to Queen Elizabeth II, and the incredible artist who, with 23 scribes, led the way for 14 years to create the complete handwritten St. John’s Bible, finished in 2014.
Gay’s photography world consisted of studying at the Santa Fe Workshops and the Maine Photo Workshop, along with individual photographers. It helped that she is a traveler who led an adventurous life on 5 of the 7 continents, freelancing and selling her work through a licensing agent, stock photography, and on her own. Much earlier on, Gay was active in The Embroiderers’ Guild of America, having achieved her master’s certification. Later she turned to textiles again, but in another form. She began a successful business of restoring and cleaning linens, vintage and contemporary.

Digging Deeper: Stories Told Through Needle and Thread
2023-05-06 10:30 - 15:30 (America/New_York) | WDS Museum, 211 Main Street, Wethersfield, CT, 06109
Join us for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes exploration of the Webb Deane Stevens Museum’s 18th and 19th century textile collection, including many never on public display. A companion to our Threaded Voices exhibition, Museum educators and guides Elizabeth O’Brien and Linda Pagliuco will share the histories behind the schoolgirls’ samplers, quilted and embroidered bedcovers, chair seats, hooked rugs, clothes, and accessories. These hand-stitched items were not only made to be useful, but they were skillfully and artistically created. In a time when educational opportunities for women and girls were limited, needle and thread became the primary way for their voices to be heard. These examples of functional art ask you to look beyond the surface to understand the visual stories told by these young girls and women.
Digging Deeper: Stories Told Through Needle and Thread will be offered at 10:30am and 1:30pm. Space is limited to 20 people for each time slot. The two-hour program includes the Threaded Voices exhibition and textile display in the Holcombe Education Center, the Silas Deane House, and the Isaac Stevens House.

The nightmarish voyage through the middle passage would change Margu forever. After gaining her freedom, Margu went on to become the first African to graduate from college in America (Oberlin College, Ohio).

Amy Cogswell and the Webb Deane Stevens Colonial Revival Garden (Zoom Webinar)
2023-03-16 12:30 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | CT
Professionally designed gardens were uncommon in the early 20th century, and female landscape architects extremely rare in a field that was traditionally dominated by men. Learn more about Amy Cogswell, one of the first female landscape architects in the United States and designer of the Colonial Revival Garden at the Webb Deane Stevens Museum. Cogswell attended the first American institution for women studying in her field, the Lowthorpe School of Landscape Architecture, Gardening, and Horticulture for Women, in Groton, Massachusetts. She graduated in 1916 and served as the school’s headmistress from 1916 – 1923. When hired by the NSCDA-CT in 1919, Cogswell’s plans for the Webb House Garden included classical elements, quaint arbors, and a wide assortment of the “old fashioned” flowers that were popular in the early 1900s. Garden Angels Coordinator Ann Foley will share details about Cogswell and her vision, the history of the garden, and how today a team of dedicated volunteers assist in tending to this beloved community treasure.
Registration is required.
About Ann:
Ann Foley is the Garden Angels Volunteer Coordinator for the Webb Deane Stevens Museum, a role she’s held for over 12 years. She leads a team of garden enthusiasts who assist head gardener Peter Winne in caring for the Museum’s gardens. She is also a former guide for the Museum. Ann plans the Garden Angels’ Annual Reception and festivities for the annual Connecticut’s Historic Gardens Day.

Women & War (Zoom Webinar)
2023-03-09 12:30 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | CT
Women have been involved in military conflicts from the beginning of time; some as warriors, some as spies, and others who made the munitions or simply called for peace. Connecticut women are among the finest and bravest who have stood for their cause – sometimes defying gender norms, and often without the recognition they deserved. Connecticut Women Hall of Fame Inductees prove that women are just as tough as men and will inspire others to shatter gender barriers. Learn about a teenager who helped save Danbury during the Revolutionary War, how Harriet Beecher Stowe sowed the seeds of conflict leading to the Civil War, and how Margaret Bourke-White’s photography brought civilians to face to face with the war front for the first time.
This talk will be presented by Louisa Iacurci, Interim Education Director, Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame. Registration is required.
About Louisa:
Louisa has a master’s in education from American University in Washington, D.C. Louisa’s 30 years of teaching experience ranges from kindergarten through adults.

In the Joseph Webb House, you will learn about the role that Black and Indigenous soldiers played in helping the Colonies attain their freedom. In the Silas Deane House, you will explore opulence and oppression under one roof and hear the stories of Hagar, Pomp, and Cloe – the enslaved people who worked for the Deane household.
The One House, Two Worlds Tour will be led by Museum educator and guide Tammy Denease. Tammy has worked at the Webb Deane Stevens Museum for nearly 20 years. In addition to helping develop education programs for the Museum, Tammy created the One House, Two Worlds program, which uses storytelling elements to bring to life the people who were enslaved at the Webb and Deane Houses.

$15 General Admission | $10 NSCDA-CT and Museum Members
Join Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking Director Bob Van Dyke as he demonstrates for woodworkers new techniques for creating sand shaded fans.
Shaded fans were a common decorative motif in Federal style furniture. They were often inlaid into the corners of tabletops and drawer fronts and were made in many different styles and sizes. The process is fascinating, and the inlays can be used in all sorts of projects- from a tabletop, a door panel or a drawer front to a box top or tray.
About Bob:
After 18 years as an award-winning chef in French restaurants, Bob left the business to begin a career in woodworking and teaching. Furniture making had provided an outlet to the pressures of the restaurant business until 1993 when he started the Harris Enterprise School of Fine Woodworking in Manchester, Connecticut. In seven years of operation, the school gained national exposure and recognition
In 2000, Bob formed a business partnership to open the Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking (CVSW) in Manchester. The school was an instant success, and the demand for classes was so great that a second shop was built to allow two classes to run simultaneously. He continually strives to expand his skills and knowledge and had been studying and building period furniture for over 25 years. He is a Contributing Editor for Fine Woodworking Magazine and has written articles for Woodshop News and American Period Furniture. He has also done many videos for www.finewoodworking.com. Bob’s school offers a variety of classes taught by himself and by many of today’s top woodworking instructors. This variety of instructors and styles ensures that there will be something for everyone at CVSW.
