Past Event
Spirit Pilots Season 2 Premiere
Last week the Spirit Pilots series rolled on into season 2 at the South Congress Hotel. This season features the work of two Texas artisans the first being Ft. Lonesome, a band of chain stitching heroins who are redefining the way the world sees embroidery and Britt Nantz of Nantz Custom Leather. Nantz combines his cattle-ranching heritage with his love for art and design to create some of the most technical and beautiful pieces we have ever seen.
A big thank you to the folks over at the South Congress Hotel for hosting this fine evening, thanks to Ft. Lonesome and Britt Nantz for coming out and being the stars of both our films, and thank you to everyone that showed up to support the event. We hope to see you again soon!
