Join us for our second year at 78th Street Studios for a day filled with creativity, inspiration, and community. The Rustbelt Fibershed Symposium is convening regional voices from across our local fiber and textile community.

You’ll hear from experts within our community as the discuss how focusing on local, natural fibers, dyes, and labor can create unique and vibrant connections, giving this place of ours more life.

Along with our panel of guest speakers in the morning, the afternoon will be immersive and hands-on: learning stations, vendor tables, a clothing swat, and more!
