Fibers Across Cultures

For its September Free Second Sunday, the UTSA Institute of Texan Cultures will feature spinning and weaving, highlighting one of the favorite parts of the exhibit floor.

The activity day will give visitors the chance to spin thread on spinning wheels and other antique implements, learn how to weave fibers into cloth, how to use weaving looms, and how to dye textiles.

Knowledgeable docents will be available to teach and assist guests. Members of the institute’s quilt guild also will be available to discuss their work and how to get involved.
