Janet McKee

I am an American living and working (weaving) in Dublin. I came to Dublin in 1968 and have been based here ever since. From early childhood I was interested in craft and handwork and I first started making rugs when I was a teenager. This interest eventually brought me to weaving and rug making is my predominant interest. However, I also do tapestry, fabric, and crios weaving.

I have traveled and lived in many different countries where I have exhibited my weaving: including, St. Lucia, Fiji, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Ghana, and Kenya.

In Ireland I have been an active member of the Irish Guild of Weavers Spinners and Dyers since 1983, participating regularly in exhibitions and craft shows, in addition to attending meetings and workshops and serving on the Guild Committee at intervals.

I have been a member of the Kilternan Country Market for over 20 years and sell my work each week at their Saturday market
