The Thomas T. Taber Museum will be hosting Donna Spangler to speak on the art of fraktur.  Donna has lived most of her life surrounded by the beauty of the central Pennsylvania mountains and the heritage of the Pennsylvania German culture. It is easy to understand why the traditional fraktur designs—flowers, birds, vines and hearts—and the flowing letters of calligraphy have become so much a part of her life and art. “I became interested in the historic art of Fraktur as a hands-on way to blend two core interests in my life – art and history. The traditional designs of the 1700s are my inspiration.”  The talk will take place in the Community Room of the museum.
