Embrace traditions, both familiar and new – all part of our American experience with the handmade. “Holiday” celebrates some of our most important traditions:
- Nordic folk woodcarver Harley Refsal brings to life the rich history of winter solstice.
- Clay artist Susan Garson creates fanciful Chanukah menorahs.
- George Vanderbilt’s opulent turn-of-the-century Christmas is recreated at the Biltmore in Asheville, North Carolina.
- Daring chefs make lavish gingerbread houses for the competition at Grove Park Inn.
- Navidad is celebrated in San Antonio with religious processions, tamales and Kathleen Trenchard’s sparkling luminarias.
- Garcia Art Glass makes colorful ornaments, and Veronica Castillo creates a traditional Mexican Tree of Life.
