Flora Borealis Community Winter Garden

Experience a Winter in Bloom outside of Textile Center!
February 20 – March 19, 2024

In December 2023, Textile Center put out a call for fiber art flowers to help us create a winter garden outside of Textile Center.  Nearly 800 fiber art flowers were donated by 200+ community members of  all ages and skill levels!

This event was a centerpiece of our 2024 Fiber Art for All week (February 20 – 24), with a goal of embracing color and connection through fiber art. The garden “grew” throughout the week, and was in full bloom by our Saturday, February 24, 2024 Open House.

This community collaboration received an incredible response, and we are in awe of the creativity of the makers. A variety of techniques were used in making flowers, from knitting and crocheting, felting, to stitching, sewing, weaving, and more. Makers embraced sustainability and reuse through incorporating textile scraps and unfinished works, and using household items like pizza pans for backings. Personal touches were added, such as stitched names of loved ones lost. Connections were made as groups met to create their flowers, like the Knitters at Norway House, the Minneapolis Central Library Craft Club, and the Oneota Weavers Guild.

We extend a big thank you to everyone who contributed a flower and help us create a lush, eye-catching display of fiber art at our corner of the Prospect Park neighborhood!
