Helen Louise Allen Textile Collection Community Day

Wisconsin Idea Room 1199, Nancy Nicholas Hall
@ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm

Join us for the spring 2025 Helen Louise Allen Textile Collection Community Day!

Once a semester, collection staff host a Community Day where we lead behind-the-scene tours and share information about the collection. In addition, we offer a limited number of object viewing appointments with staff where members of the public can bring a personal textile to discuss with staff. This event is open to the public and all are welcome. Please see below to request an object viewing appointment and/or sign up for a behind-the-scenes tour.
