If you have been to Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival (OFFF), in the past, you may know about the Gallery (it is located in the Santiam Bldg). It is a place filled with wonderful textiles that folks have entered for judging or just want to share with others. OFFF would like to encourage you to enter your skeins, or finished items for judging this year. It is a great way to get feed back and to share your beautiful work. We will let you know once the website has been updated for 2026, but in the mean time----
Think about entering a piece in your local county fair or state fair. The fairs need to know that there is interest in the textile arts.
The Oregon State Fair is now taking on line entries, up until August 19th. Here is the link to their handbook:https://oregonexpo.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/2026-Fiber-Arts-Handbook-250.pdf
The Clackamas County Fair is taking on line entries at this time. The deadline is July 24th. The handbook can be located here:https://clackamascountyfair.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/TEXTILES1.pdf
Share your local fair's information in the comments, please.
OFFF takes place the week-end of October 31st/November 1st at the Linn County Expo Center in Albany, OR. Mark your calendar.
