Fibre Art & Craft Festival
The first weekend of the festival was a great success. The openings on Saturday and Sunday were very well attended and it was especially gratifying to see so many artists in attendance. Take this opportunity to visit our festival sites for a visual feast. We would also like to congratulate our award winners.
If you are a participant or a member of the viewing public, we would love to hear from you. Send your comments about the festival to dawne@worldofthreadsfestival.com.
For seventeen days, we will showcase contemporary and traditional approaches to fibre and textiles. This year we have 14 exhibitions, and 190+ artists from 12 countries and 8 provinces. The flagship exhibitions are the 3 venues of the Common Thread. For updates follow us on facebook & now Twitter!
In 2007, the World of Threads Festival was honoured with Oakville’s annual Community Spirit Award for volunteerism in the Arts and the Oakville Volunteer of the Year for Dawne Rudman.
