Field Trips

Bring your school group or organization to Textile Center!
Field trips are perfect for fiber-curious visitors of all ages.

Textile Center’s Field Trips provide a hands-on fiber art experience with an educational spin! Take a journey from fiber to fabric by working with wool roving, twisting it into yarn, and turning that yarn and wool in to woven, finger-knitted, and needle felted fabric — the three foundational textiles! Visitors will tour Textile Center’s current exhibits and galleries, visit our state-of-the-art dye lab, visit our Garden to Dye For (seasonally), and make stops in our artisan Shop and library.
