ANWG 2013 NW Weavers Conference
Call For Instructor Proposals Deadline Extended
The Workshop and Seminar planners for the ANWG 2013 NW Weavers Conference will accept instructor proposals through Feb. 16, 2012. The conference will be June 17-23, 2013, on the campus of Western Washington University, Bellingham, WA.
Instructors can download the application at the conference website: www.anwg-conference-2013.com. The Workshop and Seminar planners expect to develop a diverse and interesting schedule of classes in fiber-related areas – weaving, spinning, design, dyeing and surface design, embellishment, basketry, braiding, clothing construction, color theory, computer applications, felting, knitting, ethnic investigation and other fiber techniques. The deadline was extended two weeks to give interested instructors additional time to apply.
The 2013 conference theme is “Crossing Borders, Crossing Threads.” It is an appropriate theme for a weaving conference at Western Washington University, so near the Canadian border in Bellingham. It is a theme that honors the influences of the many cultures whose people have crossed borders and brought their weaving traditions with them. The theme also celebrates the influences of woven borders and traditional cultures on design and color in our modern world.
