“Art to Wear”
In 2004 we are celebrating our 20th year in business. Originally
a group of five local fiber artists, the gallery has evolved to
sole ownership by Dona Zimmerman, one of the
original five. Our initial goal was to offer “Art to Wear”
clothing created by local weavers, handspinners and dyers. From
that small group of local artists we have grown over the years
into an internationally known fiber arts gallery, focusing on
local artists and also embracing “Art to Wear” and
other forms of “Fiber Art” from all over the United
States.
Our selection of wonderful “Art to Wear” includes
jackets, coats, capes, shawls, dresses, skirts, tops, pants, scarves,
hats, bags and jewelry for all occasions. If you are looking for
something unique and personal we will do custom orders and sizing
for your special occasion. We emphasize natural fibers and only
the finest quality workmanship. Some of the artists represented
are weavers: Marsha Flesher/Loominus Handwoven,
Linda Thurow/Handwoven Impressions; silk painters:
Carter Smith, Ellen Gienger/EGO, Laura
Holshouser; surface design: Beppa, Joyce Fogle;
knitters: Maggie White, Mari Sweaters; jewelry:
Shelley Kaldunski, Chickenscratch, and
Thomas Mann.
In addition to “Art to Wear” The Web-sters offers
workshops and instruction in all areas of fiber arts, including
internationally known knit designers who visit us on US tours.
If you are interested in learning any of these wonderful techniques,
be sure to check our website, www.yarnatwebsters.com for upcoming

for all fiber art forms.
The Gallery is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week year
around. Please come and visit us.
