Mary Craik was beloved in Louisville. The fiber artist, who died in 2019 at the age of 95, was a promoter of NuLu (her studio and home was on East Market Street), education, feminism and quiltmaking. Garner narrative is the gallery representing Craik’s estate and is holding an exhibition and sale that benefits her passion project, the Dr. Mary Craik Scholarship for Women Students at UofL. “I just wanted to make something beautiful,” she said. “I didn’t have any deep meaning. It was that I just wanted people to enjoy seeing it. That’s sort of my deeper soul involvement, whatever you want to call it, is.”
