Fran Osten, who works out of Newton and Gloucester.  Fran is a weaver who describes her work as “softly draping, one-of-a-kind shawls and scarves in swirls of color from hand-dyed natural and tencel fibers with a color palette and weaving patterns that reflect the colors of the sea and land on Cape Ann. “

Peggy Russell, who has completed her second year running Pop Gallery on Main Street, will showcase her Iro designs – “one of a kind, hand-painted accessories for the home and body, and colorful separates, unique and easy to wear for dress up or casual comfort! “
