Mystic Arts Center presents:

FORM & FANTASY: A CONTEMPORARY TWIST ON FIBER ART

September 30 – November 12, 2011

Opening Reception: Thursday, October 6, 2011 5:30 – 7:00 PM

Call For Entries

Form & Fantasy – A Contemporary Twist on Fiber Art is a juried exhibition open to all fiber
artists.

For purposes of this exhibit, Fiber Art is defined as a fine art using traditional natural
fibers made from plants or animals such as fabric, yarn and hemp, as well as non-traditional
synthetic and recycled materials. The essence of the piece(s) submitted should utilize some
type of fiber and be works of art that communicate a message, emotion or meaning that goes
beyond the literal meaning of the materials.

During this exhibit we plan to include other events such as guest speakers and workshops that
will serve to expand understanding and promote the appreciation for this art form.

The Mystic Arts Center is located in historic downtown Mystic, Connecticut. The mission of the
Arts Center is to foster the creation, understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of the visual
arts through exhibitions and educational programs and this particular show will take place in
their beautiful Davis Gallery.

Deadline for Entries: August 19, 2011
