CTFAC Fiber Artist Reception Saturday, January 17th in Hartford

The opening reception for the Romare Bearden inspired fiber exhibit at the Hartford Public Library is this Saturday, January 17 from 1:00-3:00 p.m.

Come out and meet the members of CTFAC (The Connecticut Fiber Arts Collective) of which I am a member.

In addition to hanging art there is a large showcase that features wearable accessories, cards and pins all handmade by members of CTFAC. All items are available for purchase with a portion of the proceeds to be donated to the library.

Here are some photos of a few of my showcase items.
