COLONIAL ARTS & CRAFTS

From a wagon and a rifle, to quilting and pewter work, to painting and furniture making, the American Colonies were able to take an object or art form and add their own stamp to it. This issue of COBBLESTONE focuses specifically on the arts and crafts of the Middle Atlantic - New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland. In many cases, the influx of new immigrants to these colonies in the 1700s resulted in innovations and improvements that allowed a permanent mark to be made on American craftsmanship. Activities to try your hand at a colonial craft and to test your knowledge of the different kinds of crafts and craftspeople in Colonial America also are included.
