TextielMuseum | TextielLab aims to become the ideal learning and working environment for makers. As part of this ambition, we want to support emerging artists and designers with an interest in textiles, through specialized additional training in the early stages of their careers. With the Advanced Textile Program (ATP), we want to generate synergy between textile talents and experts from different fields and (international) backgrounds, facilitate experiments at a cutting-edge level and offer a podium to share this with a broader audience. Once a year we invite an international group of recent graduates to develop their skills and experience together in the ATP. Participants are given access to the resources and facilities of TextielMuseum | TextielLab and the guidance of an inspiring group of experts and mentors in workshops, lectures and more.
