Wild StitchersCreations from Wild Stitch Studios

Exhibition runs: 15 January – 7 February

Wild Stitchers is a youth-led textile art exhibition showcasing wearable artworks and textile-based creations from young participants (ages 10–16) involved in two Wild Stitch Studio programs: the Kids’ Fashion Runway Program and the Kids’ Textile Art Class. In this exhibition young artists (ages 8-18) have created AND co-curated wearable art, sculptures, and textile work made entirely from upcycled and sustainable materials donated by the Wild Stitch community.

Part of what makes Wild Stitchers extraordinary is that young people have collaborated with working artists to design the exhibition; co-curating the display, mood and text to find connections and construct a theme and narrative. But this isn’t just about finished pieces. You’ll also see their creative journey: sketchbooks, process materials, video documentation, and interactive elements revealing how our young artists think and make decisions.

Wild Stitchers is perfect for families, schools, artists, and anyone curious about what young creatives are making right now.
