Celebrating Andrea Aranow, a life in full vibrancy and pattern

October 31-February 15

A virtual exhibit and gathering celebrating the life and adventures of Andrea Aranow

Delving into the theme of New Traditions, this virtual exhibit is a personal exploration of how we mourn, honor, carry forward memories and traditions from those we’ve lost, and make space for new ones.

The evolving virtual exhibit features textile objects, videos, historic photos, and remembrances of Andrea Aranow. Those who knew, met, or were influenced by Andrea are encouraged to add written and visual remembrances here.

View the virtual exhibit here.

An in-person gathering will be held on February 15th, 2022 to remember and celebrate Andrea on what would have been her 77th birthday, register through the button below.

Support Our Community Programs

In just over 4 years, Portland TextileX Month (PTXM) has turned from an ambitious idea into an engaged community movement. This transformation highlights the power of our mission to foster collaboration, cross-pollination, cultural dialogue, and intergenerational exchange among the Portland textile community and beyond.

This year we’ve organized the PTXM festival with over 40 events and directly sponsored a multitude of FREE programs including exhibits, workshops, artist talks, community events, and more—representing a diverse range of textile interests and practices. This year’s PTXM Regeneration Festival has brought together makers, businesses, teachers, students, institutions, and organizations to gather around shared interests and knowledge-sharing. PTXM would not have been possible without the dedication of event organizers, paid contributors, paid interns, amazing volunteers and the receptiveness of the textile community.

We hope to continue building PTXM and TextileX website as sustainable resources that serve the textile community for years to come, and that’s where you come in.

If you feel a connection to the PTXM mission and what we can accomplish together, please consider making a direct contribution programming. As a direct contributor, your funds will go directly toward programming, lean administrative expenses, and providing paid internships. We appreciate any contribution you can make and your continued support.
