SUMMARY:Fascinating Fiber\, Alluring Fabric at Del Ray Artisans Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Fascinating Fiber\, Alluring Fabric Art Exhibit\nSeptember 6–28\, 2024\nOpening Reception: Friday\, September 6 from 7–9pm\nFiber art fascinates by taking art outside the frame—it is unique\, dimensional\, and tactile. Draped\, stitched\, or embellished fabric sparks creativity and delights the senses\, as itself and when depicted in other visual art forms. The Fascinating Fiber\, Alluring Fabric art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans focuses on fiber and fabric art but also highlights their influence on other mediums as well. This exhibit showcases art from local area artists.
