Thomas and Patricia Hooper own and operate ASL Pewter in beautiful, historic downtown Ste. Genevieve, MO, where we handcraft traditional, functional pewter pieces. All our pewter is 100% lead free and food safe. We use a large selection of antique molds from as far back as 1650, as well as designing and making our own molds and our own forms for shaping pieces on a lathe. We are both fascinated with history, and particularly American history and American folk arts.
For the past 17 years, we have hosted an event in our shop where we invite crafters who are making museum quality reproductions and folk art. This year, we are excited to have 8 Guest Artists, all from the Midwest! These are artisans who are not often seen at local shows, and this is your chance to see their work and purchase treasures of your own. Many of our Guest Artists will be demonstrating their crafts, and we will, too!
Our event is from 9:30am to 5:00pm on Saturday and Sunday, July 16 and 17. There will be refreshments, door prizes and, of course, lots of great arts and crafts. We are located at 183 S. Third St. Ste. Genevieve, MO.
Our phone number is 573-883-2095.
