A Collection

To coincide with the Fibre Arts@Ballarat workshops this year there will be an exhibition of tutor's work entitled A Collection at The Lost Ones Gallery in Camp Street Ballarat from 16 March to 3rd April.

This exhibition has been curated by Tara Poole from RIIS Strategic Consulting and will provide a wonderful snapshot of the talent and creativity of the tutors at this year's workshops.  It will give the general public an idea of what goes on at the Ballarat Grammar School when the boarders are away during the Easter holidays, and hopefully inspire some of them to try the workshops for themselves.

I am so looking forward to this year's class, to meet up with hundreds of like-minded fibre enthusiasts and to have a break from cooking and cleaning (and moving house) for a week. It is always inspiring to meet the other tutors, to go for daily walks around the lake, check out the botanic gardens and spend a whole week just exploring natural dyes and mordants in a well-organised and extremely fun working holiday.
