Threads That Bind, an exhibit comprised of historic pieces from EGA’s collection is on display at the Washington County Museum of Fine Art in Hagerstown, Maryland until March 1st. Last Sunday, EGA president Carol Dam gave a walk-through of the exhibit and needlework demonstrations were presented. About 40 people attended the event, including many members of the local Hagerstown Chapter of EGA.
