Desert Fiber Arts
This January, the Gallery presents a new exhibition from Desert Fiber Arts!
Desert Fiber Arts is a nonprofit organization for fiber arts enthusiasts. It originated in 1974 for the purpose of promoting participation in and appreciation for fiber arts.
Fiber arts use textiles such as yarn or fabric to create unique arts and crafts.
In September 2014, Desert Fiber Arts opened a studio in Kennewick, where everyone is invited to come exercise their creativity. The studio provides warped looms, spinning wheels, and carders for members to use.
Study groups also meet at the studio to explore topics such as weaving, spinning, knitting, basketry, and felting. Stop by to learn from the area’s leading fiber experts!
The Gallery exhibition will feature incredible works of art from Desert Fiber Arts members. The pieces will include tapestries, wall art, rugs, blankets, towels, baskets, scarves, shawls, jewelry, and so much more.
The exhibition will be on display from Jan. 3 through 28. The artist reception will be on Sunday, Jan. 8, from 1 to 3 p.m.
