Archiving Place examines the sense of place through the perspective of textile artists from the Southeast region. Whether place is interpreted through physical geography, cultural practices, emotional connections, symbolic significance, and/or virtual space, the artwork is documentation of each artists’ personal experience.

Join us for an Artist Panel, Interpretations to Archiving Place, with three of the exhibiting artists: Robin L. Haller (East Carolina University), Susan Fecho (Barton College), and Emily Howard (Meredith College). Light refreshments will be served.

This event is hosted in partnership with the East Carolina University School of Art and Design.

This pop-up exhibition showcases artwork created by current and former participants in the S.H.A.R.P. and W.E.A.R. programs. Each piece was completed while the artist was in custody at the Pitt County Detention Center.

The S.H.A.R.P. (Sheriff’s Hope And Recovery Program) and W.E.A.R (Women’s Empowerment And Recovery) initiatives, founded by Pitt County Sheriff Paula Dance, support inmates battling substance use disorder. The programs help participants transform their thinking, rebuild their lives, make healthier decisions, and reintegrate with their families, with the ultimate goal of preventing future crime and incarceration.

Join us for light refreshments on Friday, November 7 from 5-8pm as part of the Downtown Greenville First Friday Artwalk!

Archiving Place

October 3, 2025 - March 14, 2026 | West Wing and Commons Galleries

Opening Reception: Friday, October 3, 5:00 - 8:00pm

Archiving Place examines the sense of place through the perspective of textile artists from the Southeast region. Whether place is interpreted through physical geography, cultural practices, emotional connections, symbolic significance, and/or virtual space, the artwork is documentation of each artists’ personal experience.

The work in Archiving Place evokes a sense of nostalgia and connection to specific, and not so specific, places. Textile arts capture the essence of place through texture, color, patterns, and material choice. The very nature of textile processes, the building up through stitching, quilting, weaving, printing, beading, etc. act as a vehicle for expressing this connection and make it relatable to a wider audience. The shared human experience reflected in the textiles creates a bridge between the artist’s personal interpretation and the viewer’s broader understanding, fostering a sense of shared memories and significance.

The featured artists are members of the Southeast Fibers Educators Association (SEFEA). SEFEA is a collective of textile artists and educators, both active and emeritus, teaching in higher education in the Southeast Region of the United States. As educators in the textile arts, the members of the SEFEA are dedicated to the continuing interchange of knowledge, the exchange of ideas, and the joy of creating unlimited possibilities in textile media. SEFEA is committed to maintaining textile traditions while opening pathways for crossing new boundaries.

Join us for the opening reception on Friday, October 3 from 5:00 - 8:00pm for light refreshments and a chance to meet the artists.

Safe Zone trainings are unique and wonderful opportunities to learn about LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) identities, gender and sexuality, and examine prejudice, assumptions, and privilege.

We don’t get a lot of space in society to talk about these things, and Safe Zone trainings unique and wonderful because they’re exactly that: a judgement free place to ask questions, to be vulnerable, and to learn. While many of us want to be supportive, we may not necessarily feel confident with the language, with our own level of understanding, and don’t know where to go to learn more.

Safe Zone trainings are safe places for people can go to learn more and deepen their understanding of LGBTQ+ identity and issues.

The training is open to all who are interested and it is free to participate, though prior registration is appreciated. Please email info@gmoa.org or call 252.758.1946 to RSVP.
