Potomac Fiber Arts Gallery announces the opening of its juried show, “East Meets West”, on 16 April 2019. The show will close on 19 May 2019. Ikat weaving, Batik, Sashiko embroidery, Shibori dyeing, hand stamping, and a myriad of other Eastern techniques and clothing styles are integrated with Western designs and techniques.
The results are very exciting. Our members have created a wonderful exhibit highlighting the theme, East meets West. Themed work will be eligible for recognition by the jurors. Non-themed work will also be exhibited.
