Why Make? Episode 52: Katie Thompson
from Why Make? Podcast Hosted by Erik Wolken
In Episode 52 of Why Make? we talk with Katie Thompson, an artist, writer, creative consultant and instructor based in the Low Country outside of Charleston, SC. Katie wears many hats including being a disabled mother of two, and wife and partner to fine furniture maker Joseph Thompson. Katie has a passion for people and sharing their stories, and pursues her inclinations as a storyteller through her monthly online woodworking journal Pen and Chisel and her ongoing project the Women of Woodworking in which she has helped to create a community gathering place for women and non-binary woodworkers. We delve into many things with Katie including her work with the Furniture Society, the Wood Art Alliance and how she uses her chronic health conditions to make a positive impact by advocating and sharing her experiences with others. Hold on tight and join us as we get inspired by bionic woman Katie Thompson!
