Iceland Field School 2026

We had fun hosting the Iceland Field School at the Textile Center for the fourth time in June 2026!

Designed by Dr. Kathleen Vaughan of Concordia University in Montréal, Canada, this interdisciplinary university course brings together students to explore creative practice, textile craft, place-based learning, and community engagement.

The final exhibition and Artist Talk, titled “Tog & Þel” (the two layers of Icelandic sheep wool), took place during "Rabarbarahátíð" – the Rhubarb Festival – on June 27, 2026, at Hillebrandtshús, one of Blönduós’s oldest houses.

Thank you for spending the month with us! We look forward to the next time :)
