On February 18, 2016, the Cuyahoga Weavers Guild is honored to host a
program about Sara Matesson Anliot, a renown weaver in Cleveland
beginning in the 1950s. Ms Anliot was a professor at Cleveland
Institute of Art, May Show exhibitor at the Cleveland Museum of Art,
and member of the Cuyahoga Weavers Guild. The program by family
friend, Margaret Luckay and Sara’s step daughter, Mary Anliot
Hertzman,  from Kentucky will share some of the family’s private
weavings and stories about Sara.  The post war years were flourishing
for the art of weaving and the Swedish inspired techniques became a
standard throughout the United States.  We will hear and become
inspired ourselves by this history in our midst.
The program is free and open to the public and will begin at 12:30 at
the Church of the Savior                   2537 Lee Road, Cleveland Heights, Ohio 44118.
