Albuquerque Fiber Arts Council
Exhibit Theme: Route 66
When: November 7-9, 2014
Where: Old San Isidro Church in Corrales on Old
Church Road
The Education Committee of AFAC is presenting an
integrated media display open to members of the 17 co-sponsoring guilds.
Displays of works will be set up on tables and hanging devices throughout the
space to showcase the various eras and geographic areas found along Route 66.
The route extends from Chicago to Los Angeles and involves 7 states: Illinois,
Missouri, Kansas (one corner), Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and
California.
There will be no jurying or judging of the
submissions. Photos of your entries are due October 1, 2014. Further
information will be on the website, fiberartsfiesta.org, under Education.
Education is the focus of the exhibit. We want to
show what guild members do in their particular discipline. There will be
demonstrations in the stage area.
The quilt committee has set limitations on the
sizes of quilt entries because of space limitations. The quilts can be up to
36” wide and up to 48” long. Each quilt must have a 4” sleeve sewn on the back
and have a label with the quilter’s name, address and the name of the quilt.
