Fabric Workshop and Museum commissioning program

The Fabric Workshop and Museum, established in Philadelphia in 1977, operates as a nonprofit gallery and artist-in-residence program that commissions artists to experiment with textiles and industrial fabrication processes. Located on Arch Street, it combines public exhibition galleries with working studios where visiting artists collaborate with the workshop's technical staff. The institution's long-running commissioning program has produced site-specific installations, prints, and fabric-based works that expanded participating artists' practices.
