The artists of this exhibition will be on hand to discuss these fiber-based and soft sculpture works\, exploring themes of comfort\, memory\, tactility\, and resistance. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe event will also feature a special preview of Welcome Blanket\, a community-led initiative founded by artist and activist Jayna Zweiman. Welcome Blanket transforms the traditional act of crafting a blanket into a poignant gesture of hospitality and inclusion for immigrants and refugees arriving in the United States\, accompanied by personal notes and shared stories from the maker. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTogether\, these contributions form a moving installation that subverts the idea of borders as barriers\, instead weaving a powerful symbol of unity and welcome. Welcome Blanket will be on display in the ISC Gallery from November 2025 through March 2026. \n\n\n\nPlease join us at this reception to see the new headquarters\, connect with local artists and community members\, and learn more about the ISC and its mission to empower sculptors and enrich the sculpture ecosystem. Food and beverages will be provided. \n\n\n\nPlease let us know you are coming by signing up below. \n\n\n\n\n \n \n Registration Form for Free Events\n \n \n CommentsThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name(Required)\n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n \n Email(Required)\n \n Enter Email\n \n \n \n Confirm Email\n \n \n \n Which event?(Required)Use the drop-down box to choose your event.Fiber Field Trip: Of & Other at Unsmoke Studios URL:https://fiberartspgh.org/event/fiber-field-trip-international-sculpture-center-grand-opening/ LOCATION:International Sculpture Center\, 5126 Butler Street\, Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania\, 15201\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://fiberartspgh.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Copy-of-fiber-field-trip-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20251113T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251113T200000 DTSTAMP:20251021T154445Z CREATED:20251020T153841Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251021T154445Z UID:10723-1763060400-1763064000@fiberartspgh.org SUMMARY:Programs Committee Meeting (Zoom) DESCRIPTION:Do you have a passion for throwing parties?
