A few minutes of Standards Circle Review may avoid confusion or disappointment at check-in for the Show & Sale — particularly for first-time artists, and any new items being entered.

The 2026 Rules & Regulations detail the Standards of Acceptance and Readiness for Sale policies  that determine the quality and type of items presented for purchase at the HGB Fiber Art Show & Sale.
