<p class="MsoNormal">Calling all fiber artists in the greater Hyattsville area!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We're looking for artists who work in a wide range of fiber art media, such as weaving, spinning, felting, dyeing, stitching/ sewing, quilting, basketry, knitting/crocheting, soft sculpture and surface design -- and things we haven't thought
of yet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The idea is to build a connection between fiber artists in the Hyattsville area and initiate events to promote appreciation of the fiber arts:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">First, there's a new private member listserv to connect fiber artists and share news about, for example, upcoming local festivals and exhibits, exhibit opportunities, media coverage, meetings, supplies and
materials. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Members will help create new events, which may include for example exhibits, workshops, festivals or sales, and talks by recognized fiber artists.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It's still new, so artists will have a chance to help create activities and build this new guild.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Members are not required to have any particular level of expertise – only a desire to learn and share.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Come join us! If you're interested, or know someone who might be, contact Deborah Moore or Tassie Hanna at
<a href="mailto:HyattsvilleFiberArtsGuild@gmail.com" target="_blank">HyattsvilleFiberArtsGuild@gmail.com</a>. Let us know if you want to join us and sign up for the listserv.<o:p></o:p></p>
