SAQA Atlantic touring exhibition,Transitions, opening October 5th, in Inverness, Cape Breton

October 2018 will be a more exciting time than ever to visit Cape Breton Island!

This year, the Inverness County Centre for the Arts will feature two textile art exhibitions during the annual Celtic Colours Festival. SAQA Atlantic's travelling juried show, Transitions, will share the gallery with Layered and Stitched, an exhibition of textile art by the Textile Artists Collective.

Both shows open on Friday October 5th, coinciding with Celtic Colours, which runs from October 5th - 13th. While Celtic Colours is best known for its celebration of Celtic music, the festival program also includes a host of art and textile events including an Ecoprinting workshop to be held at the Inverness County Centre on Saturday October 6th. The complete Celtic Colours program can be seen here.
