Discover a complex relationship between fabric and visual narratives by participating in a tour that closely examines the role of textiles in the arts. Often overlooked as a secondary element, fabric can operate as a language—communicating ideas through intricate patterns and detailed folds. Visitors will have the opportunity to deeply engage with highlights of the collection through a new lens, focusing on the many forms and functions of fabric.
