Call for entry for upcoming exhibit at Wellington County museum
The Wellington County Museum and Archives is putting out a call for creative needlework artists interested in participating in the Threadworks juried exhibition of creative needlework.
Submissions will be accepted until March 1.
The theme for 2016 is Flashback.
What does that word bring to the imagination? A few suggestions from organizers include fashion, art deco, architecture, environment/nature/fossils, summer camp, holidays, music (e.g. song titles), war, hippies, home, death, grandma’s influence/ancestors, weddings, babies.
The mandate of Threadworks is to mount, every three years, a juried exhibition of exceptional creative needlework stitched by artists from across Canada.
Since its inception in 1987, Threadworks is sponsored by the Wellington County Museum and Archives. After an inaugural exhibition at the WCMA, the show travels throughout Ontario for up to three years and is exhibited in many museums and galleries.
