Entries open for Changing Threads 2021

Arts Council Nelson is taking entries for Changing Threads – Contemporary fibre textile art awards.

These awards challenge perceptions of work traditionally associated with fibre textile art with previous winners including ‘Deep Fried’ a necklace made of hot chips, while the Nelson City Council Twist on Traditional Technique Award went to Sarah Pumphrey from Tasman for ‘Three Hundred and Sixty Three’ pieces of wood.

Entries close 29 January 2021, with the Changing Threads Art Award Exhibition on display at Refinery ArtSpace Nelson from 26 February - 20 March.

Nelson City Council is one of the sponsors of the awards.
