Gibbs Library is pleased to announce our November through December art exhibit:

The Nature of Wool: Felt Works by Amy Donaghy

---

My work is inspired by nature; the nature of the forests and ocean around me and the tactile, sculptural nature of the wool. Wool has a multifold beauty; its ability to keep us warm and its ability to be created into works of art. — Amy Donaghy, Artist Statement

This mesmerizing display of fiber art will run all of November through December, with a reception to be held on Sunday, December 8th, from 2-4pm.
