Welcome to ATASDA NSW Branch
Congratulations! You must be very interested in textiles, perusing all the valuable information on this ATASDA website. Now you have found our ATASDA NSW branch information and you are wondering what ATASDA NSW is actually like?
ATASDA NSW has just elected its new committee for 2011/12 and it's a great mix of new members and the die-hards, like myself (Kirry Toose) and Judi Crawford. We are an enthusiastic team, and we will happily and blatantly call on the expertise from past committee members and anyone who wants to engage with ATASDA members and our mutual love of textiles. We are working together trying to create a grown-up “playgroup” in Textiles, not wanting to get bogged down in rules - we want to be too creative for those! LOL.
We in ATASDA NSW are an eclectic mix – young and old, experienced and “newbie” artists ..... and all of us joined ATASDA looking for a sense of community encompassing our love of all things textile and arty. Through ATASDA we have created our own Textile Tribe and you are invited to come along.
Visit us at either a Branch Meeting or a Social Day, browse and borrow from our extensive textile library and find out for yourself what an enthusiastic and friendly bunch we are. I do hope you come and visit, try a Textile Taster, expand your repertoire in textiles through Workshops, participate in a Swap or create something for the Palm House Exhibition and the newest travelling suitcase exhibition – themed Marrakesh. The opportunities available through ATASDA are varied and suitable for all ages and skills. Let's face it- it's all fun as you learn, it’s a great opportunity to make new friends and provides the facility to exhibit your artwork.
A big welcome from ATASDA NSW Committee.
