Call for textile artists

Lorna from the Two Doors Studio in Alsager has asked me to share this email with Textile friends

Two Doors Studio

Call for Art and  Stallholders for our new annual Textile Festival

Sunday 21^st May 10am-4pm.

Similar to our successful Ceramics Festival last September, but for Textiles.

We aim to provide the public an opportunity to view and purchase quality handcrafted textile based products.  A wide choice of local:  spinning, weaving, felted, upcycled clothing, artwork, dyeing, wall hangings, embroidery, tapestry, 3D art etc. 

There will also be other events and activities such as hands on demonstrations.

As well as our normal shop, the Studio and Back Room will be full of Textiles and Textile Art. For two weeks we will be offering quality textiles to the public. Items for sale left with us for the exhibition will be sold on commission. If you are interested in selling items in the exhibition please contact us for more details,  by email or phone the shop. Please do not bring items to the shop we can only accept work by prior arrangement. 

In addition we will have space for 10 stalls (6 upstairs in the Studio and, 4 outside in our large marquee).  On Sunday the 21st of May. You may sell you hand crafted items. Additional selected items may then be left with us for sale in the following  2 weeks if you wish and we can fit them in.  But you could enter items into the exhibition in their own too!

Stalls will be £20 for the 6 hour session.  10 am to 4pm.

Please note:  Stalls can be individual or shared with other people, but you will only be allowed to sell items handcrafted by the stallholders or your team, no resale items allowed. 

We also need textile crafters to help us provide demonstrations (or other ideas!) both on the Sunday and during the following two week Exhibition. Have a chat with Lorna if you think you can help (and publicise yourself if you wish).

If you wish to enter items into our two week Textile Exhibition, then contact Two Doors Studio and speak to Lorna.  Note: we can only accept items at the shop by prior arrangement.
