Stitches Across Time

The Dufferin County Museum & Archives, is once again presenting the exhibition Stitches across Time, in 2014. Continuing the theme of the first Stitches across Time exhibit in 2011, the exhibition will celebrate the tradition and history of textile arts. The Dufferin County Museum & Archives invites submissions for a national juried exhibition of fibre art works inspired by a new selection of six historical pieces from the museum’s extensive collection of artifacts. Works submitted can include any textile medium or technique. We welcome both two and three dimensional contemporary works.
The inspirational pieces can be viewed in the Photos for Inspiration section.
Jurying will take place based on digital images only. Selection will be made on the basis of interpretation, originality, technique and finishing. The exhibition, ‘Stitches across Time’, opens on Friday, September 12, 2014 at 7 pm and will continue to Sunday, November 9, 2014.
A number of events will take place during this time. Check the Special Events, Workshops & Lectures, and Related Exhibits section for up-to-date information.
The exhibit and corresponding events are being organized by members of the local fibre arts community and museum staff.
