Exhibition Opening Reception: Follow the Thread

Join us for the opening of our current exhibition, Follow the Thread: The Fabric of the Hellenic Spirit. This exhibit showcases the folk art and textile legacy of Greece from the 17th century to the present day. The display includes examples of embroidery and weaving, as well as clothing and tapestries, many of which are a part of HACCM’s permanent collection and several which have been loaned by members of Portland’s Hellenic community. Follow the thread as it weaves a story of geography, history, and of course, the individuals who made, wore, or owned the pieces on display.
