Welcome to Española Valley
Fiber Arts Center


The Española Valley Fiber Arts Center is a unique resource for fiber artists and those who find beauty in the fiber arts. Visitors to the adobe storefront in the historic district of Española enter a world of looms, colorful yarns, beautiful handmade textiles, books, and supplies. They may also find busy students learning to weave, spinners gathering for "Spinning Saturday", Pueblo women purchasing materials for embroidery, a tapestry artist weaving her latest creation, a Hispanic weaver from the High Road searching for just the right color of yarn, or children working on their backstrap looms. The Center is a special place where people of all ages and backgrounds are brought together by their interest in the fiber arts.
