Kintsugi House will be part of the Western North Carolina Art and Craft Showcase at the North Carolina Museum of Art, a one-day event celebrating craft traditions and contemporary work from across the region. This marks Andrea Connolly’s first time exhibiting her textile work in Raleigh and her first museum-based event. She will be showing a selection of functional garments and sewn pieces made from upcycled and repurposed materials, reflecting an ongoing exploration of reuse, material history, and everyday utility. The showcase offers a chance to experience a wide range of North Carolina craft in a shared, statewide setting.
In partnership with the Blue Ridge National Heritage Area.
