bio
Bath was
incorporated in 1705 and is the oldest town in NC. The first library
and the oldest Episcopal Church, St Thomas, were established here. The
earliest postal road ran through Bath. It was an active port in the
18th Century. It was the home of John Lawson, the first
surveyor of the colony, and the haven of the notorious Pirate, Blackbeard
aka Edward Teach. Edna Ferber visited Bath in the early 20th Century
and did research for her popular novel "Showboat". Bath is
located along the inner banks of the Pamlico River Basin and is accessed by
the Albermarle Tour Highway. A visit to Bath is a unique experience as
it combines the atmosphere of an 18th century village with contemporary
life. It is a comfortable respite from the hectic life of the 21st Century .
Many new ideas have come as a result of locating my studio in Bath.
Enter the site and see what is happening or make an appointment to come by
the studio. |
