Black Mountain Artisans is a West Marin Fiber Artist Cooperative. It's mission is to provide show and sales space for high quality local and Bay Area fiber artists. BMA represents approximately 36 Bay Area artists including 27 West Marin Artists. As well, most BMA artists (including the 5 spinners) source from local shepherds and farmers.
BMA is the local equivalent of "Fair Trade" by providing local fiber artist the opportunity to sell their work with the highest possible gain for themselves, keeping moneys within the community.
Work includes hand spun and hand dyed locally raised wool and yarns, hand knit and hand loomed sweaters, cardigans, hats, scarves, shawls, hand woven garments, baby clothes and millenary hats as well as jewelry. All work is hand made and one of a kind. Approx. 75% of the artists live and work in Bolinas, Point Reyes Station, Inverness and Marshall, West Marin.
Marlie de Swart owns and operates the cooperative that was started as Black Mountain Weavers 20 years ago by 5 Inverness weavers.
