  • The supply packet includes a link to the pre-recorded instruction video. This is NOT a live class.

Learn how to create a fabric collage that celebrates the beauty of your local community! 

If you are interested in participating in the Textile Art Project, but don't have supplies such as needle, thread, or fabric readily available at home, we've got you covered! #takeandmake

After you register for this program, PPLD staff will send a supply packet with project instructions to Old Colorado City Library. Library staff will contact you when your supply packet is available for pickup, which you can then access through our Curbside Services. Once you have your supply packet, you can get started on the project!

When your collage piece is finished, bring it back to Old Colorado City Library and drop it off with staff so it can be included in the community art installation. Please return it by July 31! If you really don't want to part with your finished collage piece, don't worry - you also have the option to share photos of your work for inclusion in a digital compilation. Click here to submit a photo of your work.

If you have any questions about the project, send us an email or register to attend a Q&A session!
