Meeting last week, April 9 - Local Folk owner, Kathleen Walck
Club meeting last Wednesday, April 9, was sponsored by member Meredith Drumheller. Her guest was Kutztown shop owner and artist, Kathleen Walck of Local Folk.
Located on Main Street in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, Local Folk provides a retail space for regional artisans to sell their work, and also offers unique folk art-themed gifts and goods for sale.
The studio also offers creative workshops, usually on Sundays, taught by Kathleen, the owner, and occasional guest artisans who sell their work in the shop.
