Creating a Connected Textile Community
Our May panel discussion consists of individuals who have participated in textile tours over the past few years. They will share their experiences of the tours, reflect on the impact these journeys have had on their own lives, and discuss the ways in which they believe these tours have affected the artisans and communities involved.
This June 24–28 in Guelph, Ontario, WARP’s Annual Gathering will bring together Indigenous artists, regenerative fiber farmers, sustainability innovators, historians, fashion disruptors, scholars, and makers for an experience that our members look forward to all year.
