Founded in 1948, the Handweavers' Guild of Connecticut has been built around sharing ideas and stimulating creativity for nearly seventy years. As with many guilds, the organization welcomes not just weavers, but also spinners and other fiber enthusiasts of all levels. The works created by guild members reflect this diversity and community of sharing. A selection of these works will be showcased in the guilds biennial show: Contemporary Handwoven Treasures. A wide variety of works will be on display April 4-26 at the Lyman Allyn Art Museum in New London, Connecticut. Juried by distinguished weavers Anita Thompson and Sarah Saulson, the exhibit will feature pieces both traditional and contemporary, including both household textiles and art pieces.
