September 24 – 27, 2008
Join the Textile Society of America at its 2008 Symposium in Honolulu. Hawaii is the most geographically isolated island chain in the world and a crossroad of cultures between the East and West. As the melting pot of the Pacific, Hawaii’s diverse cultures will be highlighted at the many tours offered before and after the symposium.
Textiles serve as records of a culture’s history and values. From the work of traditional textile artisans to contemporary artists, the uses, meanings and stories associated with the textile arts provide a wealth of possible expressions.
Honolulu is the 11th largest city in the country and boasts a host of amenities. Flights to the island of O‘ahu arrive at Honolulu International Airport, just a short ride via taxi or shuttle to our host hotel. The Sheraton Waikiki is located on the beach once the playground of kings and queens. Many other hotels are conveniently nearby, as are restaurants and shops.
