Bellevue Arts Museum is seeking artists and craftsmen working in fiber in the Northwest (AK, BC, ID, MT, OR & WA) to apply to the BAM Biennial 2012: High Fiber Diet (October 25, 2012 – February 24, 2013). Entrants are invited to take a creative approach to the fiber medium – the theme of this edition – considering both traditional expressions of fiber art and the fringes of the medium, where art and craft merge. Proposals for new work are encouraged. Download the prospectus for more details >
