About Us
Primary Purposes of Pacific Textile Arts
- To provide an ongoing program of classes
- Maintain a uniquely equipped open studio for work in all aspects of textile arts to meet individual educational and professional goals
- To function as a community resource through speakers, lectures, a slide collection and textile library
- A community access gallery for historical and contemporary textiles
Mission Statement:
Pacific Textile Arts is an all volunteer educational nonprofit existing to support, share, and celebrate the fiber arts.
Our campus includes a gallery in our historic Victorian house, where exhibits are new each month; an extensive catalogued textile library; a tapestry weaving studio; and a large classroom for meetings, events, and workshops, stocked with weaving looms and equipment. A covered patio provides an area for social events and dye workshops.
Thank you for your support and partnership over the years!.
