“The Art of Fiber,” an exhibition of work from the northwest Ohio art group Fiberforum, will kick off the 2015-16 schedule in Bluffton University’s Grace Albrecht Gallery, located in the Sauder Visual Arts Center.
Opening Aug. 31, the exhibit is free and open to the public through Sept. 25. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 1-5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. A reception for the artists will be held from 2-4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 13.
