Lunchtime Film Series: Craft in America – IDENTITY

This episode of Craft in America explores America’s creative spirit through the handmade, focusing on how artists use craft to express identity, culture, and lived experience.

IDENTITY examines issues of gender, race, culture, and place through the work of four contemporary artists:

• Diego Romero, potter

• Cara Romero, photographer

• Wendy Maruyama, furniture maker

• Cristina Córdova, sculptor

Through deeply personal stories and artistic practice, the episode reveals how craft becomes a powerful tool for storytelling, resistance, and self-definition.

Originally premiering on PBS on December 27, 2019, Craft in America: IDENTITY is distributed by Craft in America and presented via YouTube. This thoughtful and visually rich documentary offers insight into the connections between art, heritage, and identity.

The screening will take place in the main gallery at Eptek Art & Culture Centre, located at 130 Heather Moyse Drive on the Summerside waterfront, next to Harbourfront Theatre.

Film admission is free.
Gallery admission by donation (suggested $5).

All are welcome to attend this meaningful and informative screening.
