A virtual panel discussion about preserving fashion legacies.

Preserving Origins is a virtual panel in which participants will discuss the critical work they have each done to keep some of the 20th Century’s most influential figures from being forgotten. Join Michael Cepress (curator of Counter-Couture) and Danielle Maggio (author and Associate Producer of “Betty – They Say I’m Different”) as they share some of the stories they’ve uncovered in their work as researchers, and discuss the process and importance of keeping these legacies alive and visible. Each participant will give a presentation on their work which will be followed by a discussion moderated by Bryan Miller.

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.
