Call for Fiber Art at the Steynberg Gallery


I am assisting Peter Steynberg by collecting entries through our Cutting Edge Fiber Art Group. You may enter up to three pieces, excluding any that showed at our December fine arts show through the San Luis Obispo Art Center. I will be sending entry forms to all members via email automatically. Please forward to anyone in your circle that meets a Craft as Fine Art criteria.

Peter Steynberg has graciously opened his schedule to us and placed our show in the month of June 2009, his busiest tourist/income month. Thank you Peter! Please take a look at Peter's website,
Steynberg Gallery and then decide if this is the place for your work to exhibit. Also, look at the past exhibit of ours at the SLO Art Center .

Looking forward to another fantastic show with you pushing the boundaries even further in your work.
