MANDALA STRING ART – Beautiful patterns emerge when dividing a circle equally and connecting these points continuously. This is the language of Sacred Geometry. Mandala String Art by Dennis Rozema, brings forth this ancient lost knowledge as a modern craft and teaches geometry in a new, fun way.

WEAVING – The Richmond Weavers Guild was formed to promote the appreciation of hand weaving and educate those interested in fiber arts in the Richmond community. This display will showcase a wide range of weaving and woven objects, as well as some of the tools used.
