Our Garage Sale Mission

The Textile Garage Sale…

  • Brings together artists, makers, and textile lovers from across the region

  • Provides materials at highly discounted prices

  • Diverts fiber art supplies from landfills, promoting better care for our environment through reuse

  • Provides support for Textile Center’s artistic and educational programs

This event is a part of Minnesota Handwork — a year-long series of programming at Textile Center celebrating the importance of fiber art and the handmade.

Minnesota Handwork is a part of a national celebration called Handwork 2026, organized by Craft in America, with more than 250+ participating organizations. Learn more: minnesotahandwork.org

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
