Lenton Williams - Not a Showing Artist Since studying under master broommaker Annie Hurst Bell at the John C. Campbell Folk School in early 2000, Lenton Williams has literally made hundreds of cob webbers, hearth brooms, kitchen brushes, whisk brooms, and larger kitchen brooms in the Appalachian Style using the hand tied process and braiding or weaving every broom he makes. Shaker Box Making is his passion and making brooms is his therapy since it is something that can be done almost anywhere and anytime without a lot of preparation. He teaches broommaking at JCCFS and demonstrates at several festivals each year.
