||| FROM BETHANY MARIE for ORCAS CENTER |||
Orcas Center’s Visual Arts Committee (VAC) is pleased to present the first community show of the year: Textile and Fiber Arts on Friday, February 14 from 5:30-7pm in the Madrona Room.
Textile art uses plant, animal, or man-made fibers to make practical or decorative objects, or a combination of both. Materials such as cotton, wool, silk, acrylic, nylon, rayon, and polyester are utilized through weaving, knitting, crocheting, embroidery, quilting, and felting to create not only gorgeous works of art but practical everyday items as well!
Join us for this fantastic show featuring the fiber artwork of our friends and neighbors.
Community shows are open to ALL island artists, beginning and experienced alike. The purpose is to showcase island art and celebrate our creative island! Light refreshments will be provided, and Ron Myers will be on the piano. For more information visit www.OrcasCenter.org.
