Announcing TSA Affinity Group Conversations. The purpose of this series is to provide a virtual space via Zoom for TSA members and interested textiles people to gather at a distance, to talk about the specific challenges in different sectors of the textiles field and share resources. This is an opportunity for TSA to help members of our field connect with each other while we wait to be able to gather in person, and to learn more about what resources we can provide moving forward. While we encourage participants to become members of TSA, membership is not required.
Group Information:
The Craft Economy affinity group is for those engaged in creating economic opportunities for handmade objects and their makers.
Through Affinity Group Conversations on the craft economy, we look forward to bringing together those involved both domestically and internationally as makers/artisans, businesses, and organizations who are engaged with the promotion and work of handmade objects from around the world. We hope this group will be a community where we can have conversations, exchange ideas, get to know one another, and generate support as we all navigate new directions in our practices and businesses. Please join in the conversation as we discuss topics relevant to our field!
