Tapestry Group
The Las Arañas Tapestry Study Group meets on even numbered months, February, April, June, August, October and December.
Please take note: The next meeting of the Tapestry Artists of Las Arañas (TALA) will be held on Wednesday, August 4, 2021 from 2pm to 4:30pm at the Open Space Visitors Center (OSVC), 6500 Coors Blvd NW. This is the first in-person meeting of our group since last February 2020. We are attempting to arrange a Zoom connection for our in-person meetings going forward at the OSVC, but do not know if we will be able to provide the connection for this meeting. If we are successful and have a Zoom connection for this meeting, we will ask Ruth to send it out to the membership in July before the meeting.
As some of you know, one of our founding members of the tapestry study group, Mary Colton, will be moving to Whidbey Island in Washington state this fall. This will be her last tapestry group meeting in Albuquerque. If you know Mary and would like to attend, please do. She would love to see you. We ask all the TALA members to bring the tapestries that they have been working on for the past 17 months and showing at all of our Zoom meetings. Bring them in whatever stage of the process to show us. We want to see them in person.
We will be talking all things tapestry, so bring your questions, ideas, work to show. We welcome anyone interested in tapestry and at whatever level and anyone who just wants to say goodbye to Mary. It would help Nancy to know how many people will be attending so if you are coming to the meeting, please contact her by July 28th to let her know you will attend. Contact Nancy Wohlenberg if you have any questions or would like to be added to our email list for announcements and reminders of our TALA meetings.
