Enjoy an armchair traveling experience with Penobscot summer resident and longtime weaver Marjorie Wheeler as she shares her trip to the mountain villages of Guatemala. Co-sponsored by the Castine Woman’s Club and the Wilson Museum, Marjorie’s visual presentation on Tuesday, April 4, at 1 p.m. will take place in the museum’s Hutchins Education Center in Castine. Learn about the industrious Mayan women weavers (and some men as well) who market and sell their products through the Fair Trade organization MayanHands.org. This program is open to the public and free of charge. For more information, contact the museum at 326-9247 or www.wilsonmuseum.org.
