Applications accepted now for fiber arts exhibit at Studio Bob

PORT ANGELES — Applications are now being accepted for a Fiber Art Exhibition planned during the month of September in the Studio Bob gallery.

The non-juried exhibit sponsored by Cabled Fiber & Yarn will be Sept. 14 through Oct. 14 at the gallery at 118 ½ E. Front St., as an extension of the North Olympic Fiber Arts Festival, held annually in Sequim beginning in October.

Artists may submit up to four pieces. The hanging fee is $4 per piece.

“We define Fiber Art very loosely,” said MarySue French, one of the organizers.

“Last year we had a wide mix of artwork including spinning, felting, weaving, quilting, painted silk, knitting, crochet, costumes, fiber paintings, fiber sculptures, needle punched, braided and woven rugs, hats and even driftwood art and jewelry.”

Application forms are available at Cabled Fiber & Yarn, 125 W. First St and online at www.cabledfiber.com. Art pieces may be brought to Studio Bob between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Sept. 13 or to Cabled Fiber from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. this coming Wednesday to Sept. 7.

The exhibition at Studio Bob will be open from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Sept. 14, noon to 3 p.m. Sept. 15 and noon to 4 p.m. Sept. 21 during the Arts and Draughts Festival as well as by appointment.
