Art as Mania, a gallery at 20-22 Emu Bay Road, Deloraine is the Happy Hookers new meeting place on a Monday – meetings are open to new members as well. For more information; Contact Laura (owner) of a gallery space for emerging artists and craftspeople. Art as Mania also sells craft and art supplies and is a stockist for Latch Hook rug making supplies. Follow Art as Mania events and activities on the Gallery FaceBook page.
Images of rugs made by the rug hooking group are posted in their Facebook group Happy2Hook2 by administrator Joanne Wild. These Happy Hookers are latch hookers who create their own designs – they don’t use your grandmother’s typical latch hook designs! Joanne can provide information about other rug groups in Tasmania.
