The Fiesta is pleased to be hosting Dorothy Bunny Bowen, internationally recognized rozome artist as the 2009 Fiesta Featured Artist. Ms. Bowen was on site throughout the Fiesta with her fiber art show, “Out of Time: Ten Thousand Days with a Brush”.

Fashion Shows |
The Fiesta Fashion Shows were again hosted by the Albuquerque Chapter of the American Sewing Guild. Artists from all fiber art disciplines were on the stage, a newer and larger stage than ever before, “strutting” their stuff. The Fiesta Fashion Shows have always been popular. |
