SUMMARY:ART EXHIBITION: Threads of History\, Fiber Arts & the Maryland Story
DESCRIPTION:Art Exhibition: Threads of History\, Fiber Arts and the Maryland Story\nExhibition runs April 21 – July 3 \nFree & Open to the Public \nThe Carroll County Arts Council\, in partnership with the Historical Society of Carroll County\, celebrates Maryland’s 250th anniversary with a special exhibition: Threads of History: Fiber Arts and the Maryland Story. This special exhibition features works by 15 artists and the collection of the Historical Society of Carroll County range from the earliest handwoven textiles to contemporary fiber creations. These works highlight the rich tapestry of our shared Maryland history and tell the story of how diverse cultures have used fabric\, thread\, and design to preserve traditions and to strengthen communities across Maryland. \n The exhibition opens April 21\, 2026 and runs through July 5\, 2026 and is free and open to the public\, as is the opening reception to be held on May 21\, 2026 from 5-7pm at the Carroll Arts Center. \nCelebrating the artistry and cultural significance of fiber arts\, the exhibition features works by 15 artists\, and includes quilts\, weaving\, embroidery\, lacemaking\, beadwork\, and other fiber techniques\, that showcase the artistry and ingenuity of makers from Maryland’s many cultural backgrounds — African American\, Indigenous\, European\, Asian\, while recognizing the impact on Maryland’s social and economic life over the past two and a half centuries. \nCarroll County Arts Council Executive Director\, Stephen Strosnider\, explains\, “Visitors to the exhibition contribute to a broader conversation about how textile traditions continue to influence and shape modern artistic expression and foster unity in our community. These beautiful fiber arts pieces invite viewers to see beautiful works of craft as vital historical documents — woven\, stitched\, and passed down through generations. We hope you will join us.”
