The Lab
Do you feel like you’re on the fringes and looking to make your way into an international textile community? Join the Lab!
The lab is an online space for artists, curators, writers, learners, educators, textile-curious folx, and others to connect across geographic borders and talk textiles. Attendees are encouraged to participate by starting their own conversation. In a 1-min. pitch, participants can address creative projects, techniques and discoveries, research, seek feedback and brainstorm, discuss new ideas, or ask questions about conferences or other scholarship preparation. All threads will be followed up with group feedback; all tangles sorted into satisfying (dis)order!
Led by: Kira Dominguez Hultgren, Emily Oertling, and Linsey Labson
We meet on Zoom and Discord. Please click here for the Discord invite link.
