Fibres Unlimited - Inspired by Taupō Museum

Fibres Unlimited – Taupō Museum 2023
'Inspired by Taupō Museum'
Main Gallery
18 February – 27 March 2023

Since its inception in 1996, local group Fibres Unlimited has exhibited bi-annually at the Taupō Museum galleries.
The group was set up by the late Joan Bright, to encourage fibre artists to work in a creative and original way, within a supportive environment. In 1996, this was radical!
Currently seven, mostly Taupō local, members meet regularly to evaluate, exhibit and share in order to develop both design and specific skills working with flax, paper and textiles.
The pandemic restrictions gave the Fibre Unlimited group valuable time to create works inspired by the treasures held in the Taupō Museum collection.

Taupō Museum is open 7 days from 10am to 4:30pm and entry is free to Taupō District residents with proof of address. Children 0 – 18 Free, Seniors 60+ and Students $3, Adults $5
