Meet our artist: Helen Hein and Anne Doumit Sparks

NORTHWEST HEIRLOOMS: FOLKLORE IN FIBER

Growing up on a large cattle ranch in southwest, Washington, from one of the region’s pioneer families, Anne Doumit Sparks, M.S., M.Ed., and Helen Hein, M.A. embraced both Pacific Northwest traditions and changes. Inspired by the time-honored practice of quilting and fiber arts, nature’s themes are explored and interpreted using a multitude of fabric. By infusing the rich, gorgeous colors of native natural resources, a new fine art collection is created— “Northwest Heirlooms: Folklore in Fiber.”

View their work October 28th 7pm in the atrium of the Civic Building.
