Textiles have been around since the beginning of human history and are deeply intertwined with our lives and self-expression. They protect the body, decorate our spaces, and express our personal and cultural identities. Whether through creating, using, or appreciating, we are all connected by textiles.

The Textile Museum is the only museum in Canada dedicated solely to the exploration of the human experience through this medium. Since 1975, we have ignited creativity and inspired wonder. Go visit their exhibitions and pop by the Learning Hub to try out some hands-on activities!
