Visions Museum of Textile Art (VMOTA) is proud to announce the opening of "Interpretations 2025," the museum’s 26th international juried exhibition. Exhibition jurors, Holly Brackmann, Luisa Gil Fandino, and Paula Kovarik examined over 400 submissions of innovative textile artworks that explore the form and technique of 2D artworks, 2D art quilts, and 3D pieces that highlight fiber. Many of the juried pieces explore themes of transformation - whether related to gender identity, cognitive shifts, family dynamics, environmental devastation, or community change. Using recycled materials, natural dyes, and inventive techniques, the artists interpret their lived experiences with originality and courage. This exhibit is presented alongside "Fiber Art Now's juried ARTwear" exhibit featuring art that was designed to be featured on the body, created and constructed with textile materials and techniques.

This in-person fundraising event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with others in the community who are passionate about finding a cure for this debilitating autoimmune disease. Also included are inspiring speakers, light refreshments, fun festivities, and a Kids Zone. All are welcome. Of special note -- 100% of all donations goes to support lupus research programs because the Lupus Research Alliance Board of Directors funds all administrative and fundraising costs. Check-In and Fun Festivities: 9 a.m. PT Walk Begins: 10 a.m. PT Walk & Festivities End: 11:30 a.m. PT Lupus is a chronic and complex autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Four out of five people with lupus are women, and the disease disproportionately affects women of color. In lupus, the immune system, which is designed to protect against infection, produces autoantibodies that mistake the body’s own cells as foreign, causing other immune cells to attack organs such as the kidneys, brain, heart, lungs and skin, as well as blood and joints. For information on the event visit: LupusResearch.org or contact Joanne Golombos directly at jgolombos@lupusresearch.org or 732-610-2267.
