Exhibition launch Saturday May 4 at 3-5pm

 Celebrating the History Festival

A Connected Thread is an exhibition honouring textile works from a range of South Australian women artists and makers.

Drawing upon the Museum Collection at the Hahndorf Academy, the exhibition brings together a specially selected collection of works paying homage to significant and expressive textile production, typically handled, developed, and transformed by women throughout history.

A Connected Thread shines a light on the power and timelessness these carefully composed and beloved works behold and continue to reveal.
