A Community of Textile Artists
We are a group of textile artists based in and around York. We work together to support each other in creating textile art but also as a force for change in promoting the value of Textile Arts.
Our core aims are:
-
To act as advocates for textile arts both locally and nationally
-
To display and sell our work in joint exhibitions
-
To support each other in developing our work
-
To develop networks with emerging and established groups of textile artists at national and international levels
