Announcing the 2024 Fiberarts Guild of Pittsburgh Juried Member Show at the Erie Art Museum.
Exhibition dates: April 4th, 2024 through January 19th, 2025.
Drop off works would be mid March 2024.
Submission deadline would be late December 2023.
Wanting to encourage our members to explore new opportunities and expand their experience, the Fiberarts Guild of Pittsburgh is excited to offer “Grow in Fiber” Grants. Whether members consider themselves a novice or professional, current members are invited to apply for this developmental grant. This is a fiber focused grant opportunity for artists from various backgrounds and genres; you don’t need to be a fiber artist, but the grant proposal must be fiber focused. This can include artists exploring fiber for the first time.
This grant is open to Fiberarts Guild of Pittsburgh members both in and out of the area. You don’t need to be a FGP member to apply; but if you are a recipient of the grant, joining FGP is a requirement.
There will be an information session on February 23, 2023 @ 7PM ET via Zoom.

Membership Exhibition
Where: North Hills Art Center – 3432 Babcock Blvd, Pittsburgh, PA 15237
When: March 11th – April 7th, 2023
The Member Spotlight show focused on members artist’s voice. What captures the spirit of your art practice? It was a chance to share their passion, and unique point of view. What had influenced their work over the years? How has it changed? Was there a turning point that brought them to the way they work today? A technique with which they are obsessed? What is their relationship to their art? This exhibit was a chance to let all of our members’ individuality take center stage.
Make sure to check out all the fiber workshops at Contemporary Craft, including the weaving and needle felting series.
Several of our members are teaching as well as invited artists.
