Textile Exhibit

Connections, a textile exhibit and sale featuring locally made hats, scarves, wraps, cowls, mittens, bags and other fashion accessories, as well as local yarn, runs Sept. 25 through Oct. 31, 2015, at the Asheville Area Arts Council (AAAC) Gallery. An opening reception for Connections is scheduled 5pm – 8pm, Oct. 2 at the AAAC. A closing celebration, from 5pm – 8pm Oct. 30, will include ongoing fiber art demonstrations.

The exhibit, produced by Local Cloth Inc., in conjunction with the AAAC, showcases the results of partnerships between local fiber farmers and fiber artists, with all work incorporating some locally raised components — animal or plant fibers or dyestuffs.
