The Textile Study Group reaches a milestone anniversary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Textile Study Group<\/a> will be 50 in 2023. For half a century this group has been at the forefront of innovative making, teaching, and textile art practice. Since its inception in 1973, and originally established to support tutors of embroidery, the group has evolved and grown in stature and is now one of the UK\u2019s most prestigious and respected groups of textile artists and tutors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Textile Study Group maintains a core membership of 25 experienced textile teachers, all of whom are nationally and internationally recognised for their forward-thinking and challenging approaches to art practice, contemporary teaching and making. Many members are published authors of best-selling textile, art, and design books, and many have won prizes and awards for their outstanding work in the world of textiles, as have their students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making:50 a landmark exhibition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be celebrating our anniversary year with a significant touring exhibition \u2013 Making:50<\/strong> – and by publishing a limited edition bespoke book. Both will include new and exciting work from our current membership, and acknowledge those who paved the way by initiating \u2018Group \u201873\u2019, (which later evolved into the Practical Study Group, renamed the Textile Study Group in 2010).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each new artwork in this anniversary exhibition includes an element of 50 \u2013 either obviously or obscurely \u2013 and some artists will be discussing their work in an exciting series of online lectures and Meet the Artist events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
