October 1 – November 30, 2013 - Strong Stitches – Friendship, Cooperation & Uniforms
A juried fiber arts exhibition fortified with creations that reveal the strength and love of admirable association, working together, and apparel that reinforces unity and identity. Durable and mutual attachments form through the crafting, wearing, and sharing of fiber works. These bonds are built through quilting bees, life-altering occasions, community charity causes, and teaching how to sew on a single button. Between wearable to wall hanging, the Strong Stitches exhibition is open to all fiber arts media.
Deadline September 1, 2013

October 2 – 27, 2012 Long Yarns - Fiber Art Stories, Fables & Lessons
A juried fiber arts exhibition recounting and revering the tales fiber can reveal, with morals, legends, and myths as the influential yarn twists. The stories may be personal, filled with historical encounters, or fairy tales designed to reveal the hard work behind creative and clever craft. Tall tales filled with characters that have idealistic goals, unrealistic demands, and stubborn natures can be illustrated and brought to life through threads and fluff.
