The Costume and Textile Symposium 2023

This year, the Costume and Textiles Association of New Zealand (CTANZ) is holding its symposium in Oamaru in May. 

The theme for the event is "Tradition", a timely one given ongoing debates about appropriation in the craft world. CTANZ is celebrating 21 years of work so this promises to be a special occasion. 

For more information and to sign up to attend head on over to the CTANZ website (where, incidentally, there is a textile blog to lose yourself in) and click the "Symposium" link at the top of the page.
