About the event
Sit Happens (But Not Here)
A room full of chairs — and nowhere to sit.
Each piece in this exhibition represents more than just upholstery; it reflects patience, perseverance, problem-solving, and pride. From stripped frames to finished statements, these chairs have been completely transformed by hand — with every stitch, tack, staple, and design decision made by the students to achieve their AMUSF Certification.
We invite you to stand and stare, to admire the craft, and to celebrate the journey. But please, as ever in an upholsterer’s studio — don’t sit down.
