The Fabric Workshop and Museum will celebrate its 50th Anniversary in 2027. We invite you to join us for this special preview celebration to learn all about the exciting things we have planned for this banner year.

Be among the first to preview the exhibitions, major programs, and special initiatives that will define our 50th year while enjoying behind-the-scenes access, curated experiences, and a festive cocktail reception.
