Textile Arts Center: Exhibition Proposals

Deadline: (UNSPECIFIED)


Proposals for Solo and Group Gallery Shows
Textile Arts Center

Brooklyn, NY


The Gallery at Textile Arts Center aims to offer a view into the not-always-soft-and-plushy world of fiber and dispel preconceptions that limit fiber art to craft. It showcases solo- and group shows, as well as student work. The gallery is a backdrop for events, lectures and screenings on fiber and textile arts and their place in art history and the art world.

The Textile Arts Center accepts proposals for solo and group gallery shows. If interested, please submit an exhibition proposal to submit@textileartscenter.com including a detailed description of the exhibition, a list of participants, the dates requested, and any photos of work.

About the Textile Arts Center

The main goal of the Textile Arts Center is to provide support to fiber artists, and everyday people interested in working with fiber, by acting as a resource facility and creative meeting place.

The Center occupies a newly renovated, 3,200sf space in an old sweater factory. The Center is designed to serve the established and emerging creative community of Brooklyn. It features state-of-the-art weaving, screen-printing and dyeing equipment, including 30 multi-harness floor looms, a large vacuum-sealed exposure unit and two fabric-yardage screen-printing tables, plus much more.

The Textile Arts Center holds classes, workshops, and special events. Our Galleries showcase current fiber art through group and solo shows and installations. In addition, we provide services for designers and artists including our Artist in Residence program, as well as the ability to rent our facilities, receive consultation, and aid in screen printing, dyeing, or weaving.
