October 2016

Shannon has moved to Edmonton.  We are hoping to see her at some of our workshops.  She is wearing the shawl woven by Cheryl, our gift to Shannon from PCSW.   "Until we meet again!" 

The Saori workshop was quite a success.  More pictures next month.

Remember summer?  A few more pictures of our North Peace Spinners' and Weavers' dye weekend at Charlie Lake.

Layers of Love
The Wearable Arts of Clarissa Rizal and Sho Sho Esquiro
October 19, 2016 to February 19, 2017


Artists Sho Sho Esquiro (Kaska Dene/Cree) and Clarissa Rizal (Tlingit) create exquisite one–of–a–kind pieces of hand crafted visual art in the form of couture fashion, clothing and ceremonial/dance regalia. This exhibition uses clothing to call attention to women as precious beings, intimately connected to family, history and territory.

The exhibition is guest curated by Miranda Belarde–Lewis (Tlingit/Zuni) an independent Curator, living and working in Washington State.
