ATASDA  promotes textile art and surface design and those who create it. We seek to inspire our membership through the development of a creative community and the provision of opportunities for learning new skills.
We encourage the use of a diverse range of techniques for artistic expression including printing, dyeing, painting, felting, embroidery and the integration of different materials such as paper, metal, wax and glass.
This national not-for-profit organisation connects those who are inspired by textile art and wish to be excited by its possibilities. If that is you, we would love you to join us!
