The Fiber Arts Festival was created to provide an event for gathering the fiber community, education about the fiber arts, and a marketplace for all things fiber related. Here are just a few things you can do at the Festival to be part of that!
Libraries at the Festival
We have invited area public libraries to come to the Fiber Arts Festival! Last year, the Fargo Public Library offered library cards and a fun activity. We plan to have more libraries this year. Other non-profits may also request a free booth, if they have some connection to fiber arts. Apply here.
At the Festival you can also:
Try a new fiber technique

Want to help make the fun happen? The Festival is looking for volunteers. If you know how to sew, knit, crochet, needle felt, or even just tie a knot we need you! We are always in need of demonstrators to help with the hands-on activities, and with a range of difficulties in the activities anyone can help out, and we will even teach you how.
Don’t want to demonstrate? We also need help with behind the scenes coordination, greeting attendees, taking pictures, and other general tasks.
Volunteer for as little as an hour or two and be part of our community of wonderful fiber enthusiasts! contact krlbaird@gmail.com
