Explore a selection of items from the University of Iowa Libraries’ Special Collections and Archives related to embroidery, weaving, and textiles design and production.

Spend some time reviewing materials like Rosey Grier’s needlepoint for men, a textile production map from Germany, and artist books of thread and fabric on display in the lobby. We will also have a selection of books from the Art Library to inspire, and a craft activity related to the theme. Bring a friend to experience the pop-up and stay for the current textile exhibits for a great day at the museum!
