Stained Glass Workshop

Ramson Lomatewama is a glass artist, the first and only full-time Hopi glassblower, Katsina doll carver, published poet, and jeweler from Hotevilla, AZ, on the Hopi Reservation. He earned his BA from Goddard College in Plainfield, VT, in 1981. Ramson has taught various workshops and courses in the US and Japan and served as an adjunct professor of sociology at North Central College in Naperville, IL. Although Hopi ceremonies and cultural activities play a significant role in his life, Ramson continues to dedicate time to schools, universities, and museums as a visiting scholar and artist. Ramson teaches glass art for the Hopitutuqayki (The Hopi School), an arts apprenticeship program on the Hopi reservation.
