Wings of Art Rug Hooking Exhibit
Dates: August 9, 2027 - September 22, 2027
Several drop-off locations will be available if you prefer not to ship your rug. The gallery is insured during the exhibit time and has security cameras/an alarm system in place. Rugs will be picked up from several locations in July 2027. You will receive your rug back at the same drop-off location the following year, July 2028. Insurance will be purchased for transporting the pieces to the exhibit location and storage in Anita Gillis's home in between exhibits. While we have your bird rugs, we will line up some other exhibit locations before returning the rugs to you. We will not line up any galleries that do not have adequate security and cover your piece under their insurance policy.
Deadlines
Last day to submit your work—June 30, 2027
Last day to register for Hook-In: June 30, 2027
If you intend to drop off or ship your piece at/to the Turner Center yourself, it will need to be there no later than August 5, 2027. Shipping will be at your own expense, and you must include a return shipping label in the box for return of work.
Ensure your work is ready to hang or suitable for placement on a pedestal or shelf. Single-point hang is the most preferred for an exhibit this size. Work must be labeled on the back with the artist's name and the name of the piece. This procedure helps us to keep track of the piece and return it correctly. Please email a photo of your work with the name of the piece and the artist's contact information to ineedrughooking@gmail.com for Anita's and the Turner Center's records.
Please contact Anita Gillis for shipping addresses or more drop-off info on locations and dates.
