Living Treasure Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Fiber Arts

The Montana Association of Weavers and Spinners intends to recognize
fiber artists who have made an outstanding lifelong contribution to the
fiber arts.  This award is given to a person or persons who have
demonstrated excellent craftsmanship, have been a source of inspiration
and knowledge to others, and have contributed to the development of
the fiber arts on a state, regional, and/or national level. This is our
method of paying tribute to the “Living Treasures” in the fiber arts who
are MAWS members.
