Out of the Loop 2013
West Hartford Art League

West Hartford, CT
February 7 - March 3, 2013



The West Hartford Art League is pleased to announce a call for entries for its second broad-scale juried fiber arts show to showcase out-of-the-ordinary, contemporary fiber works that advance traditional techniques through radically innovative interpretations. In other words, definitely out of the loop!

Entries can include (but are not limited to): surface design, felting, quilting, knotting, weaving, knitting, fiber sculpture, basketry, handcrafted paper and needlework. We encourage two and three-dimensional works including sculptural pieces.
The juror will be looking for exceptional craftsmanship as well as "out of the box" thinking, design and execution.

Eligibility:

All work must be the original work of the artist and must have been completed within two years of the entry deadline and not previously exhibited in a WHAL juried show.

All work must be at least 50% fiber or textile that has been hand-manipulated.

All entries must be installation-ready with appropriate hanging rods or mounting devices if necessary.

No complex installations.

All submissions must be on premise by January 26th. No exceptions.

Entry Fee: Fee for each entry: $20 non-members, $15 members. Up to four pieces may be submitted.

Sales: All artwork must be for sale. A 30% commission is taken on all sales.
