This exhibition showcases 20 contemporary tapestries by members of Tapestry Weavers West focused on the dramatic shifts in our daily lives in recent years.

Shift: to change position, direction, place or form. To be altered as part of systemic historical change. 

In our tumultuous world, the ground seems to be constantly shifting under our feet. How do we shift in response to world events? How do we see the world shifting around us? What has shifted in our lives? How do we seek balance?

Featuring:  Chelley BonDurant, Bobbi Chamberlain, Kate Colwell, Marcia Hanson Ellis, Janette Gross, Jennie Henderson, Stephanie Hoppe, Laura Kamian McDermott, Heather Larsen, Sarah Michael, Yonat Michaelov, Care Standley, Kathe Todd-Hooker, Sue Weil, Ama Wertz
