About the New Mexico Silk Painters Guild:
Formed in 1995, the New Mexico Silk Painters Guild is an organization of fiber artists who work in various surface design media. We meet regularly to share our work and to plan our frequent group shows and occasional workshops. We are members of the Albuquerque Fiber Arts Council and participate in the Biennial Albuquerque Fiber Arts Fiesta. We are also members of Silk Painters International, sponsor of the SPIN conference in Santa Fe, July 22-27, 2012.
See our work and that of other silk painters and surface design artists at these venues.
Watch for an announcement about our Fall 2012 Silk Road Show.
