THE VIRTUAL EXHIBIT WILL BE POSTED SOON - STAY TUNED!!!
See how regional artists exploit the creative potential of textiles to create new, exciting and meaningful works. Our previous fiber art shows have featured stunning layered, stitched visual works that are an eye-opener. From its roots as a practical craft, quilting has evolved into an art form in its own right. And contemporary fiber artists incorporate many materials and techniques to create new, unexpected art forms. Don't miss being part of this exciting exhibit - enter today!
The Fabrics of America: 2026 Fiber Art Show will be on exhibit in the gallery through the month of May.
