Many Exhibits At
April Craft Show
Tryon Crafts opened its 12th
Annual Exhibit in the Gallery of
the Fine Arts Center Sunday,
March 29th with a capacity crowd
and a reception in the Mural
Room. The exhibit will continue
throughout the month from 10 to
12 and 2 to 4 Mondays through
Saturdays.
The exhibit displays a wide
variety of articles crafted in its
many classes. The largest
number of articles appeared to
come from its needlework
classes, including pillows,
hangings, chairseats, purses and
footwear in petit point,
needlepoint, bargello. pulled
thread, cross-stitch, blackwork,
crewel and sculptured
embroidery, the last being used
in a striking portrait of off-white
madonna.
The woodcarvers are
exhibiting a number of articles,
large and small, in different
kinds of wood. They include
several carved animals, a boy
and his fishing pole, servers and
miniature tools. A magnificent
carved eagle spreads its wings
between the jewelry cabinets.
The jewelery, displayed in two
wall cabinets, comprises a
variety of articles fashionec
principally in silver, with many
featuring colored or variegated
stones. The items on display
include bolas, bracelets,
pendants, earrings and belt
buckles. One item of interest was
a geode with a silver crucifix in
its sparkling cavity.
The classes in spinning, dyeing
and weaving have many display!
in the textile arts. Samples of raw
wool are followed by hanks of
spun woo) and an exhibit of woo.

dyes in a dyeing class last fall. A
number of knitted articles are
also on exhibit, including a
sweater knit from Tryon collie

Many products from the
weaving class are exhibited,
including pillows, hangings, a
long dress, scarves and a
handsome bedspread at the
Gallery entrance. There is also
an exhibit of homespun clothes of
the style worn by Appalachian
mountaineers.
A number of exhibits from the
rug-hooking classes are
displayed, not only floor rugs but
wall hangings depicting scenes in
vivid colors. From the enamel ng
class are many deco
articles produced by a variety of
enameling techniques on copper.
There are also exhibits of
macrame, chair caning and
pierced lampshades. Finally, the
teacher of the new pottery
classes being held in the new
Farwell Annex to the Arts Center
has loaned several of her ceramic
works — a foretaste of a new art
form which Tryon craftsmen will
be showing at future exhibits. —
