Artists interpreted the theme in a wide variety of ways, drawing inspiration from life, nature, world issues and more. These three dimensional textile works will use a variety of interpretations to reveal a story, similar to unwrapping a gift.
The exhibit features 26 works by 23 artists allowing for various interpretations to inspire guests.
