Artwoven by Hand:
The Work of Peg McDade
(1937-2025)

June 19–November 30

The Everhart Museum is honored to celebrate the life and legacy of Peg McDade, a master fiber artist, devoted educator, and treasured friend. Born in Scranton, Peg devoted her life to the tactile beauty of weaving, felting, and dyeing, infusing every creation with heart and craftsmanship.

Her first solo exhibition was held here at the Everhart in 1982, a pivotal moment in a lifelong connection. A mentor to many, Peg shared her talents generously through programs with the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, inspiring generations with her warmth, wisdom, and artistry.

This exhibition pays tribute to her dual legacy: as a maker of vibrant, textured works and as a teacher whose impact endures. Always, as she proudly noted, her art was “woven by hand.”
