We Gather

What do textiles mean to you?

You probably wear them almost every day. Perhaps, as a little one, you had a favourite blanket that was both your sidekick and safety. Maybe you treasure an old sweater because, no matter how many times you wash it, it still smells like a beloved person or place.

Textiles are one of the first things to embrace you when you enter this world, one of the last to comfort you as you leave it. They mark the thresholds of our lives, accompany us in our everyday experiences, and forge connections between us.

WE GATHER is here to spread the textile love. To celebrate textiles and all of the wonder, history, and meaning that they hold.
