Pasadena Heritage: The Living Spirit of the Arts & Crafts Movement
Pasadena Heritage presents an exploration of the Arts & Crafts movement through the work of Julie Leidel, a Roycroft Master Artisan and founder of The Bungalow Craft. This talk considers the movement not only as a historical moment, but as a living philosophy still unfolding today. Beginning with the legacy of Roycroft and Elbert Hubbard—tracing its ideals, influence, and enduring spirit—Leidel reflects on her own path as a Roycroft Artisan within this lineage.
The presentation also delves into a quieter dimension of the Arts & Crafts movement: the often-unspoken thread of symbolism and inner resonance found in historical works. Through her own body of work, Leidel illustrates how these principles continue to evolve, offering a contemporary harmony within the Arts & Crafts tradition and inviting audiences to experience art not just as something seen, but something felt and remembered.
