The 5th Annual High Fiber Under Five Exhibit is being held October 20 - November 4, 2012 at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles in San Jose, CA.

For the past four years High Fiber has been the Museum’s signature benefit art sale created to generate support for both fiber artists and the Museum. A juried exhibition, High Fiber is an inspiring showcase for a wide variety of textile art forms including quilts, jewelry, tapestries, wall-hangings, sculpture, and wearable art where fiber plays a prominent role. All of the art in this exhibition is for sale at $500 or less, with a designated percentage of the proceeds donated to the Museum.

An secondary exhibit, FiberShots, is an additional opportunity for the public to purchase fiber art. FiberShots will feature 15” x 15” artful fiber work—traditional and contemporary/non-traditional—that will be sold for $100, directly in support of the Museum.

Executive Director Christine Jeffers notes, "It is our mission to promote the craft and history of textile and fiber art. This event presents a broad representation of fiber art and allows members of the public to purchase a piece, take it home, and become advocates for fiber art."
