In-Person Gallery Show
JURIED BY CAROLE BEADLE
Show dates: October 7 – November 13, 2025

DESCRIPTION
Fiber Art is a fine art approach of creating objects, with an emphasis on materiality, and the fine manual labor involved using natural and/or synthetic fibers. Textiles, fabrics, and found objects are often included.  The choice of materials, the manual labor, and personal expression define this art form.
We are looking for wall-hanging or sculptural works that are created with knotting, twining, plaiting, sewing, embroidery, felting, paper making, knitting, crocheting or weaving. Explore the possibilities. They are endless.
