HIGH FIBERs

Southeastern Wisconsin has a strong tradition of working fiber artists and programs that foster them. Fiber artworks often bridge and break down the historic gap between traditional craft and fine arts. They create openings in interpretation, invite exploration of gendered roles/methods of making. This exhibition showcases the work of 11 invited emerging to established artists working with fibers.

This exhibition is free and open to the public.

Jazz Gallery Center for the Arts (JGCA) is a non-profit organization serving Southeastern Wisconsin with a diverse range of visual and performing arts programming, created by a diverse community of visual and performing artists. At JGCA we provide opportunities to create, present, and experience the arts.
