Join us for a day full of ongoing presentations and demonstrations from wonderful guests that share their love and connection to agriculture, sustainable living, and the natural world. Meet artists, agrarians, small business owners and educators that are immersed in the world of farm and fiber.
The sidewalks and streets around the Boston Center for the Arts’ Cyclorama are full of small shops and restaurants and you are welcome to come and go to the festival during the event to take advantage of this historic neighbourhood.
There are many parking garages nearby as well as public transportation.
Bundle up! It’s cold and windy in the city in February. But what better time to visit a fiber festival?!
Find these representatives and discussions in the entry and parlour/stage of the Cyclorama
