Textile Arts

Lillstreet’s textile arts are growing rapidly by demand. This department is for those students looking to take the art of cloth to a new level. From the basics to knitting, dyeing, printing and embellishment, students are literally forming their own unique style. Through a combination of classes and workshops, students can complete original yardage, fashions, home accessories and even two-and three-dimensional artwork.
