With the tremendous success of the first World Threads exhibit last year, TACtile is expanding the size and scope of this year’s event.

The Exhibit’s objective is to bring an awareness and appreciation of world textile traditions to the public and to support those groups and individuals working to preserve these traditions. Participating organizations like Dsenyo will offer a lecture, workshop, demonstration, or video related to the fiber traditions represented in their products. These will occur on Saturdays during the exhibit.
