April Showers...

This April got off to a snowy start but we can finally feel spring weather is just around the corner!

Garage Sale Success!
We have done our spring cleaning and so have many of our members and generous contributors. Along with all the donations we received and the countless hours our volunteer staff put in, our annual garage sale fund raiser wa
s a huge success! We thank you all very much for all of your support and assistance. We didn't have the best of weather conditions but we ended up having a great turn out anyway and we would like to thank those of you that visited the Textile Center over the weekend. We hope everyone had a great time and are enjoying all the fun goodies that you took home. We are already looking forward to next year!



A new exhibit in the Joan Mondale Gallery!
Climate Change April 18 - May 31, 2008
co-sponsored by the Fiber Artists' Study Group
This mixed media fiber art exhibition, is a strong response to one of the most urgent crises facing our world today: the undeniable and detrimental effects that poor stewardship of our natural resources has wreaked on our planet. The Fiber Artists' Study Group members embraced the inspiration of climate change and a new energy was unleashed. The outstanding result of that challenge is an eclectic but very personal body of work that is sure to induce a passionate reaction from the viewer.

Opening Reception Friday April 18, 6-8 pm

(come join us for wine and cheese!)
*A postcard catalog of selected works from this show will be unveiled at the opening reception and available for sale in the Textile Center Shop for $15. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this postcard catalog will be donated to the Nature Conservancy.


New Furniture!
Some of you may have already noticed that we recently updated the lobby of the Textile Center. It's colorful and welcoming! The Ewe Knit Tuesdays group has already gotten a chance to test out the cozy new couch. We even have a wonderful place to eat lunch if you are here for an all day class or a full day in the Dye Lab with Candy! Everyone is invited to come enjoy our new space and make yourself at home!
