ARTS AND CRAFTS at PMSS GUIDE

The ARTS AND CRAFTS AT PINE MOUNTAIN SETTLEMENT SCHOOL GUIDE aggregates ARTS AND CRAFTS of both traditional arts and crafts forms as well as so-called traditional Appalachian arts and crafts that are associated with Pine Mountain Settlement School.

The examples are taken from arts and crafts created at Pine Mountain Settlement School as well as those created by residents of the near-by communities. The described examples are included within standard art and craft categories such as: WEAVING ; CERAMICS ; BROOM-MAKING ; CHAIR-MAKING ; FURNITURE ; CORN-SHUCK DOLLS ; SEWING ; QUILTING ; FIRESIDE INDUSTRIES ; BASKETRY ; METALCRAFT ; TOY-MAKING ; etc.. — though some examples incorporate multiple types of craft or fall outside the boundaries of typical categories.

The VISUAL ARTS such as PAINTING and PRINTMAKING, are found within their own headings.

CERAMICS [POTTERY]

ARTS AND CRAFTS CERAMICS Guide

*”Ceramic” is usually the accepted general term for the art form and “Pottery” is generally considered to be a sub-set of the term and is used to refer to clay pots or earthenware vessels. Ceramics may include vessels or objects made of materials that fall outside of standard clay. Pine Mountain uses “pottery” throughout their literature and clay (often native) is the material of choice.
