TEXT Journal

An important function of the Textile Society is to provide a forum for those engaged in various kinds of textile study through the Society's annual publication,TEXT. This contains articles, papers, educational reports and information on exhibitions and conferences. The magazine also features reviews as well as international news and comments concerning textile design and industry.

The Silver theme is much in evidence in the Society's current journal, celebrating the Textile Society's 25th anniversary.
