Crawford Art Gallery is excited to announce our first guest guided tour of 2024, guest guide Sarah Foster from Crawford College of Art and Design!

Join us on this tour as we explore how the boundaries of traditional techniques such as weaving and embroidery have been pushed by artists who are interested in embracing the potential of thread in contemporary art.

The tour will commence at 6:30pm and will last approximately 45 minutes. It is free to attend and no booking is necessary!

Sarah Foster is an educator, historian, critic and curator who lectures at the MTU Crawford College of Art & Design in the history and theory of visual culture across the Contemporary Applied Art and Fine Art programmes and on the special purpose award in Fine Art Textile. Her primary research concerns the histories of making, retailing and consuming and her teaching encompasses design history, art history and contemporary themes within visual culture.
