Tuesday Tea / Fiber Art in Oberlin

Two visionary entrepreneurs who have advanced the fiber arts in Oberlin will discuss their work in the community and respond to the exhibition Kitsch, Craft, Critique. Liz Burgess (OC 1973) is a fiber artist and the former owner of Ginko Gallery & Studio. Lisa Whitfield (OC 1990) is the owner of For Ewe: An Inclusive Fiber Community. Join us for their talks in the Ellen Johnson Gallery followed by a reception in East Gallery. For all events, visit our website: https://amam.oberlin.edu/exhibitions-events/events.

This talk will be held in a wheelchair- and rolling walker-accessible building. Restrooms are gender-specific and wheelchair-accessible. The work of art is located in a main floor gallery. Gallery seating is limited and stools are available by the back entrance. Listening devices and ASL are currently not scheduled for this event, nor will it be recorded.
