A lot has been going on here at the Textile Center since our last news update.

What's showing in the Joan Mondale Gallery?

Our current show, Beads of Whimsy (March 7 - April 12, 2008), has received a great response from the public. Be sure not too miss this amazing exhibit showcasing artists from all over the world.

We would like to congratulate the Beads of Whimsy award winners.
