Anderson Center at Tower View - Red Wing, MN
Exhibition: Soil to Soil: Growing Regional Textiles
On view October 21st, 2023 - January 20th, 2023

Soil to Soil: Growing Regional Textiles is co-presented by Three Rivers Fibershed and the Anderson Center. This exhibition shares ideas, processes, and garments developed by farmers, spinners, designers, and makers who are working towards regenerative regional textile systems. The show features five shawls or similar garments that have been made by Minnesota & Wisconsin artisans using nearby fibers, dyes, spinning processes, and production techniques.

Soil to Soil weaves together cultural objects, images, and information to highlight the practices and labor that go into sustainable garment production. It also offers a small textile and dye boutique for those who want to include more regional products in their own practices.
