Come Inside

October 3-October 24

Enter a cute felted world made to resemble guts and gore.

Zoe Huddleston’s installation welcomes all to “Come Inside” a space upholstered with large scale felted and crocheted organic forms that resemble gore. Mimicking internal organs and organic “gore-like” forms made from soft materials, found objects, and beads/glitter, showcasing ideas of togetherness and solidarity. After all, we all look the same on the inside. 

Zoe’s hope is that entering and experiencing this physically accessible and touchable installation will allow the local PDX community to feel changed, and even re-born upon emergence. Sometimes, to affect change in our surroundings, we first need to look inside.


Opening Reception: 10/3 5:00-9:00pm

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.
