About Bristol Textile Quarter

Bristol harbours a strong, thriving network of producers, consumers and retailers who are working together to make Bristol a Sustainable Food City; a city that can feed and sustain itself through more responsible, resilient systems.

At some point in 2014 we thought “ if Bristol can think and care so much about how it feeds itself, then why aren’t we thinking and caring about how we clothe ourselves too?”

The vision for Bristol Textile Quarter is to offer both an online platform and a physical space (see Studio) in which the local textile community can start to connect, collaborate and explore what a more resilient local textile economy might look like.

BTQ is set up as a Community Interest Company, dedicated to supporting the local textile community.

We promise not to bombard you with lots of emails you don’t want but we’ll occasionally let you know about what’s going on at the studio.
