Friends of Marie Zimmermann complete funding of assistantships and scholarships at Peters Valley School of Craft on behalf of the Legacy of the Artist
Friends of Marie Zimmermann, a non-profit member organization in Pike County, PA established in 1997 to restore the Marie Zimmermann House has provided funding to Peters Valley School of Craft in Layton, NJ for its 2023 season for Assistantships and Scholarships.
The scholarships were further supported by contributions from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, where Marie Zimmermann received her first inspiration to become a metalsmith. The inauguration of this intended annual commitment to Peters Valley by the Zimmermann organization is meant to serve the lasting legacy of the artist for her life-long personal determination and national acclaim for precise elegance in metal crafting.
A visit to Peters Valley, one of the top craft schools in the US, is always rewarding with events and exhibitions throughout its working season and a wonderful Retail Gallery open year round. See web address below for directions:
