Textile Museum of Canada: 50th Anniversary and Reopening Reception

The Textile Museum of Canada is thrilled to invite you to celebrate our 50th anniversary and reopening on Thursday, October 30, 2025, from 5–9 PM.

Enjoy hands-on textile workshops, loom demos, screenings in our auditorium, and shop refreshed fabrics, yarns, and notions from our Reuse Program.

A social evening follows, with the bar open all night, and Phillippe (@dancingphil) playing 7–9PM (quiet hours 5–7PM).

The night also marks the launch of three major exhibitions reflecting our past, present, and future:

Made by Many: 50 Years of the Textile Museum of Canada — celebrating five decades of stories, exhibitions, and communities.

Taking Shape: Recent Acquisitions (funded by @partnersinartcanada) — new works expanding the diversity of our collection.

From Cloth to Code: New Media Responses — artists reimagining textiles through digital and immersive media.
