The Rockport Public Library will host a show of handmade works by members of the library’s fiber arts collective, November 6-24. Members will display new works of embroidery, felting, quilting, knitting, paper art, and more in the upper and lower levels of the library.
This is the twelfth year that the group of midcoast-based crafters has been meeting at the library. “This show is one of our favorite annual traditions,” says Rockport Library Director Ben Blackmon. “The library staff watch the members progress on fiber art projects all year long, and then we get to spotlight their finished works and celebrate their immense talents!”
The fiber arts group meets on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Tuesday of each month, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. in the lower level of the Rockport Library. Gatherings are usually informal, but mini workshops are also occasionally conducted. The group is open to everyone and welcomes new members. For more information, visit rockportlibrary.net.
