Women of Fibre: Mary Garnham Andrews and Articulation features a broad selection of the weaving of Mary Garnham Andrews, 95-year-old Banff artist and Master Weaver. While Mary’s work anchors the exhibition in the tradition of weaving, the contemporary works of Articulation, an eclectic group of fibre artists, illustrates the ongoing vibrancy of fibre arts across Canada. The works of Articulation are inspired by the Whyte Museum’s collection.
