THE TWO WHO ARE FIBRE ARTS AUSTRALIA
Glenys & Nonie
Sharing a love for textile art, travel and philanthropy, Glenys and Nonie are both artists in their own right and have been friends for over 30 years.
Joining forces as business partners in 2016, the pair now search the globe for the best textile and fibre artists to join their five-day textile art events as tutors.
Glenys and Nonie are focused on creating unforgettable experiences and giving Fibre Arts event attendees the space, time and motivation they need to focus on their artistic endeavours.
