Exhibitions



 

CHG photoThe Chattahoochee Handweavers Guild sponsors an exhibition every year.  In odd-numbered years, CHG hosts the Chattahoochee Biennial of Textiles, a regional exhibit open to fiber artist in the southeastern United States.  In even-numbered years, CHG holds an exhibition which is open only to CHG members.

The Margaret Mott Award is presented at CHG’s Members' Show to a Guild member whose work has never been exhibited in a juried show, and whose entry is handwoven and entirely executed by the recipient.  This award has been presented at every Member’s Show since 1992.  Visit Members Only to view the list of past Margaret Mott Award winners.
