A Common Thread
Three Exhibitions. One Story. Woven Through Time.
20 September – 21 December 2025
Explore how textiles connect art, craft, and industry.
From home sewing to factory looms, textiles have shaped our lives.
Once seen as everyday “women’s work,” textile making has grown into a powerful form of art and expression.
Visit three rooms, each telling a different part of the story:
- Textiles in Art – Abstract thread-based works by artist JPR Stitch.
- Textiles as Traditional Craft – Celebrating the skill of home makers.
- Textiles in Industry and Fashion – Tracing local fabric production (based in the Spotlight Gallery)
Together, these exhibitions show how thread links people, places, and time.
