Fiber art teaching
opportunity in Newfoundland
As
part of the Craft Year 2015 celebrations, the Craft Council of Newfoundland and
Labrador is preparing to host a fiber arts conference in October 2015 in
gorgeous Gros Morne National Park.
The
council is currently looking for proposals from fiber artists who would like to
teach at the conference. It also looks like there will be opportunities for
artists to participate in panel discussions and other events.

Fiber Arts 2015
Celebrating Craft in Newfoundland and Labrador and
Craft Year 2015, Fibre Arts Newfoundland
and Labrador will take place from October 15 - 18, 2015 in beautiful Gros
Morne National Park.
This four day
conference will consist of workshops, lectures, exhibitions, seminars, panel
discussions and tours and is bound to satisfy your fibre yearnings.
The Instructor Committee is now calling for
proposals from interested designers, makers, and teachers. We invite you
to be creative, and develop sessions that will inspire our Conference
participants to reach beyond the boundaries of their current studio practices,
and think in new ways, explore new ideas and develop new products. The
Committee welcomes innovation in techniques and materials.
We look forward to submissions directed at both
entry level and established professional fibre artists. Workshops in the
areas of dye, felt, knit, spin, weave,crochet, surface design and rug hooking
will be accepted and considered, as well as fibre techniques used in other
media.
Please click on the links below for information on
submitting proposals, and watch this space for more Conference news as it
becomes available.
