More about Robert Haven
Robert W. Haven was the former Associate Professor of Costume Technology and Costume Director at the University of Kentucky. He is a master at tambour beadwork and teaches the art of tambour in classes all over the United States. We were fortunate to have Bob in our museum during 2019, to recreate a beaded dress from our collection. We are delighted to welcome him back for another two workshops on beading and lace-making using the tambour method.
