About the Instructor
Curt Cable has been making brooms about 20 years now. Curt and his family reside in the Appalachian hills of Southern Ohio. A place where unique natural materials are easily found everywhere, waiting to be made into a piece of his art. It has been a slow and steady journey over the years, to get his work accepted into some of the best craft shows in the state of Ohio. Curt enjoys working with his hands, playing music with his daughter Willa and hiking in the woods of Appalachia, always looking for broom handles.
