This October the PTXM festival will explore the theme of Regeneration. Through the loss and dislocation we have collectively experienced, how have our myths, rituals, and symbols sparked joy and regeneration within our textile practices? What are the reflections that have inspired and shuttled us through uncertain times? And what role do art, community building, protesting, teaching, sharing, and grieving play in regenerating the communities and worlds we inhabit?
We are honored to explore this important topic with you highlighting diverse perspectives across a myriad of cultures and generations. Please join us in sharing your projects, knowledge, experiences, and practices highlighting the power of inclusive grassroots organizing during this year's PTXM festival.
Applications are now open through July 8th here and read the general application FAQ here. Distributed Community Project applications can be found here, with the corresponding DCP FAQ here.

With gratitude and admiration,
