Reviews
"Loved it so much!! All the pieces were amazing. You can even go to the second floor and see the current art projects in the making and read about them. My favorite were the exhibits on the 8th floor working with sound."
"What an unexpected delight. We stumbled into the Fabric Workshop and Museum, internationally acclaimed collaborator of artists worldwide creating new works, visionary exhibitions and a variety of public programs. At the time of our visit, exhibitions were available on only two floors β top and the first. Staff and literature were very helpful in explaining and assisting us with our questions. Anything and everything textile...weaving, hooking, sewing, stitching. Needless to say, the fabrics and exhibits were unusually creative, stunning and gorgeous...a little too little."
"This museum is amazing. It's so brilliant, modern and artistic. Well done to the staff and the artists. They are all are so helpful and friendly. All the exhibitis are one of a kind. They are so unique. Some exhibits are permanent but some other change within a few months. If you are interested in art, Fabric Workshop and Museum is a must go place. It's in the city centre. The entrance is free but you must reserve a spot online You are also welcomed to donate the amount of money you wish as an entrance fee."
"I loved this! I love how the staff here is super welcoming, nice, and friendly. What really made me smile is the fact that this is a donation museum! The actual entry is free but you can give a donation to them, which I thought was amazing. The pieces here and wonderful and I love how you can add a little bit of your own creativity. The gift shop had some really cute stuff as well. Loved this experience."
"First visit was for the opening ofJayson Musson's satirical residency project: his History of Art multimedia exhibit. Especially enjoyed Jayson's video tussle with Picasso on what constitutes genius in modern art. The museum offers 3 current exhibits with free/pay what you wish admission. The staff are friendly and the museum store alone is worth the trip. Easily accessible by public transit or car(paid parking adjacent)."
