Textiles Sydney

---

Textiles Sydney is a collective formed to foster the development of art made with textiles. It provides a forum for textile practitioners to share knowledge and also facilitates community art projects. Current initiatives include a community art embroidery project now in its fifth year, and a spinners’ group that meets monthly.

The embroidery group meets on the first Wednesday afternoon each month to work on a communal tablecloth.

We have complete beginners as well as skilled craftspeople working together on this shared enterprise and everybody is welcome. The aim of the group is to share knowledge and conversation and enjoy each other’s company. Once a year we prepare a feast spread on this special cloth in the beautiful environment of Primrose Park.

The spinners meet on a Wednesday evening.  This will be our first year in this beautiful community environment.  We have formed as an inclusive group who are keen to ensure spinning endures as a modern craft. Bring your equipment and whatever your current fibre habit is for the evening.

Textiles Sydney welcomes new members and groups. A modest annual membership fee helps to pay for the use of the Primrose Park Arts and Crafts Centre. Please confirm meeting dates and times at this link to the calendar. You can follow us on Instagram at @Textiles_Sydney (link below) and can contact us at textilessydney@gmail.com
