CT Surface Design Association Exhibition - 1 Down with Many More to Come!

On Saturday I had the pleasure of exhibiting with members from Connecticut's chapter of the Surface Design Association. For the past month we had been showing our work at the Mark Twain Library in Redding, CT. Saturday was the day for the artists to host a meet and greet with the community - we met many wonderful people who were sincerely interested in the art work! This is the first exhibition for the chapter and I'm super impressed with the members commitment and level of enthusiasm for connecting with the community through their art work.

Leslie Giulani and her Outlander inspired knitwear and cashmere collection. 

Alicia Caraballo shows her wears! 

This is the "Carol" corner! Felter Carol Ingram's work is to the left
and my work is behind it on the right! 

Co-rep's Ellen Schiffman and June Myles can be seen zipping around making sure the event was going smoothly. They are in the upper right with June wearing a blue vest and Ellen wearing a gray top. They did a fabulous job!

More Shawls and Scarves!

I've got a lot going on in my own little slice of the world but I did manage to work on more shawls and scarves for an upcoming exhibition. Surface Design Association's Connecticut chapter will be hosting, Fantastic Fibers; Art to Give ~ Art to Wear at the Mark Twain Library in Redding, CT October 7 - November 15th. 

There are two phases to this exhibition; first the art work will be displayed in the library beginning October 7th and secondly the artists will be hosting a trunk show on November 15th offering unique art work for sale... just in time for holiday shopping don't you think! 

The Surface Design Association is comprised of many types of fiber arts: weavers, felters, fabric artists and more. I hope you'll have an opportunity to stop by throughout the exhibit and especially to say hi on the 15th!
