Our Story

Textile and Fibre Artists of Manitoba was the brainchild of five fibre artists.  These five, plus others, form the executive for the organization.  Our inaugural meeting was October 25, 2017 and since then we have grown to over sixty members and have hosted many workshops, exhibits and events.

We currently have several exhibits touring:  Textural Dimension (2023) and Dual Impressions (2024).  Peace (2025) 

Venues interested in displaying any of our current exhibits should contact us here.

Our Goals
