The long awaited INTERWOVEN show opened at the Scottsdale Civic Center Library Gallery on April 13.   It will run until June 30. 

On April 19, 40 people attended “The Many Faces of Fiber Arts” a demo/expo at the library where nine Telaraña members demonstrated everything from spinning and weaving to book arts and felting.  

                                                

Scottsdale Public Arts hosted a festive public reception for the show on April 22 with most of the artists in attendance.  Many glowing reports were posted in the comment book and attendees spent time chatting with artists and admiring the work.  

Two additional outreach programs will be offered.  Winnie Johnson will present      “Unbe-weaveable”, a card weaving demonstration on May 24.  On June 14, Betz Frederick will offer a slide show and lecture “Fiber Arts in Papua New Guinea”.  Registration is encouraged at www.Scottsdalelibrary.org/exhibitions.

We are so proud of all our participating members and grateful for the opportunity to show the public our art.
