Ongoing and Upcoming Events
Ongoing events include Lunchtime Fiber, every Tuesday from 10 am to 2 pm, and Rush-Hour Refuge, every Wednesday from 5 to 8 pm. Both events are free and open to everyone and both are the perfect opportunity to relax, meet up with friends, and work on a current fiber project or weave on the SEFAA Center loom. Come often and whittle down that list of UFO's (UnFinished Objects!)

In conjunction Spotlight on Student Fiber Trends, there will be a solo exhibition of Edward S. Lambert's work. Mr. Lambert, MFA (1940-2011) was a renowned educator, artist, mentor to graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Georgia, and advisor to the Southeast Fiber Arts Alliance. His outstanding contributions in the field of education and textile design place him among the most respected and innovative artists in his field. Spotlight on Student Fiber Trends is due, in part, to his encouragement and inspirational leadership and we are honored to present some of his creative work.
