On October 9, 2025 The Future is Wool hosted a public pop-up stitching day in the EV Junction at Concordia University, inviting folks from within and beyond the university to join us and add embroidery to our panel. We also encouraged visitors to participate in our questionnaire, so that their ideas and stories about wool could be part of our next panels of tapestry.
Sustainability front and centre, TFiW team reminded visitors that wool is biodegradable (no plastics!), anti-bacterial, flame-retardant, insulating against both heat and cold, and can be the basis of regenerative agriculture that nourishes our soil! Artisans, hand crafters, and wool farmers are leading the way!
The light in the high-ceilinged atrium was beautiful, the colours of our naturally-dyed and undyed wool glowed like jewels as we moved our collaborative stitching forward.
We will hold another Montreal area pop-up later this fall, and will announce the date and times on Instagram and via our mailing list! Please follow us and sign up for updates!
