Over 60 local and national artisans have their work represented in the Copper Shop Gallery on the Roycroft Campus. Among them is Mary Hubbard, a great-granddaughter of Roycroft founder Elbert Hubbard, who creates handspun yarn from the fleece of a herd of Suri Alpacas that she raises on her Town of East Aurora property. That naturally colored yarn is then transformed into beautiful hand knit garments such as scarves, hats and gloves.
Another artisan featured is printmaker Dorothy Markert, a Roycroft Master Craftsman for over a decade who creates handmade prints of stylized flowers, arts and crafts, pottery and Roycroft architecture.  They capture the spirit of graphic work produced in the craftsman style and evolve from her study of decorative motifs such as borders and friezes from that
period. The Gallery, located in the original Roycroft Copper Shop, contains an extensive gift area, gallery and displays of historic printing equipment,
in use periodically for demonstrations and workshops (visit the website for a schedule of artisan courses).
Studio hours: Monday - Sunday 10 am-5 pm
