FWM at 50: Support our year end goal and help shape what comes next

For nearly 50 years, artists, apprentices, students, supporters, and visitors have come together through The Fabric Workshop and Museum’s mission of artistic experimentation, education, and discovery. The impact of this community has been profound, reaching countless lives through the power of art and exploration.

The coming year will mark an exciting milestone. Through our FWM at 50 initiative, we will celebrate our history while investing in our future. Special exhibitions, artist projects, public programs, educational opportunities, community collaborations, and anniversary events will honor our legacy and expand our impact for the next generation.
