TAVA supports and encourages each member as a fiber artist through sharing ideas and techniques, as well as exploring the boundaries of the medium with programs and hands-on activities.  TAVA increases public awareness of fiber art through exhibits and public engagement.

​

TAVA meets monthly in Southwest Virginia to promote the creation of fiber art.  Meetings are currently held both in-person and virtually.  Regular hands-on activities let the members learn new techniques, challenges push each artist’s imagination and exhibitions educate the public about fiber art as a medium.  Previous collections were exhibited locally as well as at the Montgomery Museum for Arts and History, Virginia Quilt Museum, Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival and other Mancuso shows, and the Taiwan International Quilt Exhibition.
