Selvedge World Fair took place 3rd - 5th  September 2020. The three-day virtual event, a celebration of cloth, culture and creativity, presented the work of master artisans, bringing together varied - and in some cases endangered - textile traditions from around the world. Visitors were able to buy handmade treasures, take part in online workshops and watch and participate in talks on textile-related themes. 

Includes: 

KEYNOTE - Polly Leonard, founder & editor of Selvedge talks about the connection between cloth culture and creativity. If you follow a thread it will take you around the world!
