Woven Hartford: The Craft of Community

In Collaboration with the Hartford Public Library

June 1 – August 29, 2026

 

Woven Hartford pairs contemporary textiles by the Hartford Artisans Weaving Center with historic broadsides from the Hartford History Center’s Graphic Arts Collection. Displayed alongside the original broadsides, these woven works reimagine Hartford’s graphic history through fiber and color, sparking a cross‑generational conversation about craft, community, and connection.  The exhibition is part of Handwork 2026, presented by Craft in America, and features textiles designed by Tara Patrina of the Hartford Artisans Weaving Center and woven by the Center’s artisans.
