The Knocturnal attended Tatter’s new flagship at 230 Ashland Place a new home to their library and exhibition galleries, providing gathering space for special events, artist openings, public workshops, and retail.
They’ve built a new space in the heart of Brooklyn’s cultural district, to convene people and conversation, exploring textile’s unique ability to bring people together. The demand for what they do has never been greater. Centrally located to invite foot traffic, shares a streetscape with other compelling organizations and cultural destinations like BAM and MOCADA.
This new gathering space in the heart of Brooklyn’s Cultural District will help TATTER to create a home where we can continue to champion textiles, build community, and celebrate one another. TATTER programming and library are used by hundreds of artists, scholars, historians, and designers each year
Textile arts have, for decades, longed for a centralized community space and an organizational steward to advance underrepresented textile artists, promote learning, engage social questions, preserve heritage, and encourage joy. Brooklyn does benefit from having hubs like this which keep our creative community connected and enrich all the surrounding areas.
