Besides all the usual great wares, they will be selling Batik fabric and Bolgaatanga Baskets!
I’m sorry, I couldn’t get this flyer to fit the page perfectly. I select medium size format and it’s too small but large size format cuts off the right hand side! I think you can read all the pertinent information.

GUEST ARTIST
STEPHANIE GRUBBS
FIBER ARTIST
“Very hard labor is required to change soft wool fibers into solid form. Felt takes the imprint of the maker to become something new, yet the wool always has a say in the form it takes. It can be soft and filmy or thick and hard enough to serve as a shelter.” Stephanie Grubbs, a fiber artist from Edmond, OK, has been weaving, stitching, knotting, felting and making paper for over 35 years. We are pleased to share her unique, beautifully crafted work with you.
