The Society’s records

Everything the Society’s own records say of Dorothy Stanton: the offices held, the standings conferred, and the awards won. Where the records are silent, so is this part of the page.

Society Member 1988–1997

Branch

Woodstock · listed as a member in 1996

Certification

Associate of the CSCL 1976
Woodstock. Twenty-three years in leathercraft and ten a member; taught by Stan Blair and Clara Cavanagh, and exhibited at Forest Fair ’72, Leather ’74 and Leather ’76. The same page records that she took the Zalitis pin that year “for the highest standing among new Associates”. Contemporary minutes of the 26th Annual Meeting (CSCL Documents, “77 annual”, p.5) confirm the pin and give her town as Forest, Ontario.

She showed two pieces at Leather '74, the Society's exhibition at the Toronto Public Libraries' Learning Resources Centre, 666 Eglinton Avenue West, Toronto, 3-28 June 1974, and one piece in the Society's exhibition at the Craft Gallery and Resource Centre of the Ontario Crafts Council, 346 Dundas Street West, Toronto, 2-28 March 1976. She made a square for the CSCL Leather Quilt.
