The Northwoods Fiber Guild (NFG) is pleased to announce an exhibition of fiber works entitled Through Our Hands IV. The exhibit will open at the Johnson Heritage Post gallery in Grand Marais on June 26 and run through July 19.

The show will feature a variety of fiber art by NFG members – all local artists and artisans who live along the North Shore and Thunder Bay. The selection of fiber works includes weaving, knitting, felting, quilts, paper, beadwork, jewelry, baskets, wood carving, clothing, accessories, sculpture, wall hangings, rugs, gifts and other mixed media. Most of the art work will be for sale.

An opening reception will be held on Friday, June 26 from 5-7 p.m. at the JHP gallery. This is the guild’s fourth exhibition at the JHP, and as in past years there will be plenty to ooh and aah about – from incredible fiber wonders to tasty hors d’oeuvres.

NFG president Anne Hegg stated, “We are excited about our upcoming show, Through Our Hands IV. It is one of the many ways we are always sharing our love of fiber with each other and the wider community.”

Everyone is welcome to this extraordinary exhibit. NFG artists will be present to demonstrate the skills of their craft during the four weekends of the show, including July 4th.

The Johnson Heritage Post is open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday and Monday from 1-4 p.m. For more information about Through Our Hands IV look on Facebook at Northwoods Fiber Guild.
