Join us for a behind-the-scenes tour of The TATTER Textile Library. The library team will give a tour of the space and highlight books, catalogs and ephemera related to the history of textiles, providing insight into the library’s unique collections and their role in preserving textile history.
From the Tatter website:
TATTER is a cultural arts organization that explores textiles to tell human stories & cultivate understanding. BLUE: The TATTER Textile Library, opened its doors in June of 2017. Serving as both an interactive, ongoing art-installation as well as an academic research library, BLUE is an ever-growing home to 10,000 books, journals, exhibition catalogs and objects that examine and celebrate the global history, traditions, makers, craft and beauty of textiles.
Following the tour, join us for a social hour at a nearby location to connect with fellow local library and archives workers.
