We will build a giant weaving machine – designed by Bristol Weaving Mill – for everyone to have a go! There will be a new textile workshop space, open every day, free for all to use.

A summer-long programme of free, weekly family activities in our new textile workshop spaces led by our fabulous creatives-in-residence, Let’s Make Art.

Arnolfini’s resident Women's Craft Club – which includes women from refugee and asylum communities – will be invited to work with exhibiting artists and share their traditions and skills with visitors. All activities will be free.

Celia Pym will bring her Mending Project to Arnolfini, inviting audiences to explore the visible mending and repair of textiles that carry personal stories and memories. Farwa Moledina will create a Majlis – a sitting room for social gatherings filled with bespoke textile patterns and cushions, where everyone is welcome. Free for all.

All donations make a difference to our campaign and are greatly appreciated! Below are just some of the fantastic and exclusive rewards available to donors.
