The Surface Design Association is part of an international community engaged in promoting awareness and appreciation of the textile arts.

The artists in the Peninsula chapter produce both functional/wearable and non-functional pieces.

Since the chapter formed in 2013, members have shown pieces in juried gallery exhibitions, wearable art shows, museum exhibits, community libraries and retail spaces.

The chapter meets monthly to share current projects, learn more about specific textile techniques from each other, listen to invited speakers and prepare for group shows.

The group generally meets the second Wednesday of the month. Locations and times vary.

The next meeting will be at 2 p.m. Feb. 13 at the Sequim Library, 630 N. Sequim Ave., for a Stash Swap.
