## Description

Textiles & Tea with Anita Luvera Mayer

The Handweavers Guild of America, Inc.'s (HGA) exciting new program for 2021, Textiles & Tea, takes place every Tuesday at 4 PM (ET). We've invited some of the most respected fiber artists in the field today to join us for an hour-long conversation where we we discuss their artwork and their creative journey. Make a cup of your favorite tea and join us as we talk about fiber, creativity, inspiration, process and so much more. 

Anita Luvera Mayer was introduced to looms and weaving by her mother-in-law and following six years of self-study, experimentation, and selling, Anita’s focus on garments began in 1972. The clothing designed and worn by Anita relates to ethnic garments of other cultures and are constructed from simple shapes with each piece considered an investment in clothing because of its timelessness and wear ability. Anita’s fiber art now includes a wide range of surface decorations as a result of her seven years of study in embroidery and design at the Gail Harker Creative Design Center. Anita’s work has been included in national and international shows and she has presented lectures and workshops throughout the United States and Canada. She has published three books and three monographs and is a frequent contributor to national magazines. Anita believes there should be something magical and unique about what is worn each day and wants to share this concept of clothing with others.
