Title
In Good Hands: The Women of the Canadian Handicrafts Guild.
Abstract
The founders of the Canadian Handicrafts Guild were Montrealers Alice Peck (1855-1943) and Mary (May) Phillips (1856-1937). In 1896, they started the Home Arts and Handicrafts Committee within the Montreal branch of the Women's Art Association of Canada to exhibit and sell Canadian crafts. This committee became, in 1905, the Canadian Handicrafts Guild, a steering committee to develop Canadian handicrafts and a national organization to promote arts and crafts in the country.
