Prospectors

Rocky Mountain Region EGA

An Exhibit of Original Needle-Artwork by EGA Region Members

Prospector’s 2024 Theme:

 “End of the Santa Fe Trail”

What is Prospectors? 
The Prospectors Exhibit is a spectacular display of needle art put on by the Rocky Mountain Region at in-person, region events. The first Prospectors was held in 1991. Members of RMR are all encouraged to participate in Prospectors which showcases the enormous talents of its many stitchers. Prospectors entries for the exhibit include only originals and adaptations. The exhibit is not judged, but is to encourage those members who want to be a bit more creative and try something new and different. Each Prospectors exhibit has a theme, in part, to help inspire the design and to unify the exhibit; however, following the theme for display is not required.
