The sneak peeks are over! With just a week to go until the premiere of the Beneath the Southern Sky travelling exhibition of textile works at the Craft & Sewing Show at Rosehill in Sydney (8-11 March), I am excited to launch the online gallery so that you can view all of the exhibit:
Even better, the Exhibition Program has been expanded to provide more opportunities for you to view the exhibit “in the cloth”. In addition to the six 2012 Craft & Sewing Shows in Australia and New Zealand and the Australasian Quilt Convention (12-15 April) , where I will be presenting a curator’s floortalk daily at 12.30pm, you can see this exhibition at:
- Craft & Quilt Fair, Perth: 23- 27 May 2012;
- Craft & Quilt Fair, Adelaide: 8-11 November 2012;
- AQS Quilt Show, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA: 13-16 March 2013;
- AQS Quilt Show, Paducah, Kentuckey, USA: 24-27 April 2013; and
- Gosford Regional Gallery: 1 June- 3 July 2013.
Yes! Beneath the Southern Sky is heading to the northern hemisphere in 2013. Further venues are under investigation.
