Knitgrrl Studio owner Shannon Okey has been chosen to create the awards that will be presented at the 34th annual Cleveland International Film Festival. Created from handmade, hand-dyed wool felt, these awards will be given to four top filmmakers from all over the world. See page 21 in the festival guide for more details.
Among the previous local artists chosen for this honor is Hildur Ásgeirsdóttir Jónsson, whose textile pieces Shannon loves.
