Exhibitions to Enter for Convergence

In case you have not seen this already on HGA's website (weavespindye.org), there are several Exhibitions HGA and Non-HGA members can participate in. 

The deadlines are fast approaching to get the items mailed to the appropriate places to be juried to see if they will be chosen for exhibition in this year's Convergence in Knoxville. 

Wouldn't it be nice to see a Scenic Valley Handweaver guild member chosen?  I think so!


Here are the various Exhibitions (full details can be found on HGA's website):

"Mixed Media Exhibition": Deadline to submit item to juror is February 2nd

"Yardage Exhibition":  Deadline is February 9th

"Wearable Art Exhibition & Fashion Show":  Deadline is February 23rd

"Basketry Exhibition": Deadline is March 2nd

"Small Expressions 2022": Deadline is March 15th
