Press release for SDA-IL artist Pat Vivod

I'm very excited to have been included in this wonderful and diverse exhibit in Lafayette, Indiana.  It is worth the trip to see.  Below is one of three pieces I have in the show.  You can see my other work and photos taken at the reception on May 12 at my personal blog Sentimental Pentimento.  There are several fiber people among the 51 artists in the show.

MAY 12, THROUGH AUGUST 27, 2017
This exhibition features 140 works of art by 51 prominent professional craft artists (clay, glass, metal, wood-working and fiber), from 25 states plus Canada and Australia.  These artists make their living by creating and selling fine art crafts.  Many of the most renowned artisans are juried participants in the most prestigious art shows in the U.S.  Including Chicago’s SOFA at Navy Pier; Grand Rapids’ Art Prize; and Ann Arbor’s Summer Art Fair.  Guest Curator, Jim Sondgeroth has personally selected and invited each artist.  This unique exhibit expands on the first two Making it in Crafts exhibits shown at the Art Museum in 2011 and 2014.  It is one of the most exciting and comprehensive arts and crafts shows to be presented in the Midwest.
