Through workshops in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee, Material Matters explores the fabric of peoples’ lives in an imaginative way. The project involved people of different ages and cultures in the creation of sewn wall hangings inspired by each person’s emotional attachment to a textile that has a story to tell: a grandmother’s quilt, a child’s dungarees, a Palestinian embroidery, a wedding dress.
This exhibition of sewn wall hangings made during Material Matters will be on display at Glasgow Women’s Library from 3rd to 15th March during our regular opening hours.
A special Show and Share launch invites you to bring along a textile that is precious and tell its story. Or, if you just love sewing, come along to hear other people talking about a textile that matters to them.
If you would like to attend the Exhibition Launch please book on the website event page here.
The exhibition is open to all and is free to attend. There is no need to book.
