The Collaborative Golden Cape Project honours ATASDA members. It is a ‘golden” garment representing 50 years of creativity and innovation, featuring fifty individual panels highlighting various textile art techniques. The panels draw inspiration from and reimagine artworks from past ATASDA exhibitions. Each contribution to the Cape is a personal response by a current member to its corresponding historic artwork and its story. In addition to the individual colourful panels, the yoke of the cape features the embroidered names of the current 220 members. Many members have contributed to make this project a reality. We appreciate all of the work that has gone into the Cape’s creation.

To celebrate 50 years of ATASDA is to celebrate all of its members, past and present, and to look to the future.
