The Texas Museum of Fiber
Arts (TMFA) fosters education and creativity in fiber art expression,
experience, and appreciation. TMFA exists to generate expressions in
fiber arts of all kinds through its emphasis on fiber arts education,
acknowledgment of established and emerging Texas fiber artists, and
celebrating art made from natural and man-made fibers. In keeping with
TMFA’s mission to exhibit excellence in Texas’ fiber arts, and to
educate Texans about a wide range of original fiber art works, we call
for entries that reflect the biggest and best Texas has to offer.
