Discover the beautiful, and often untold story of ethnic garments in the U.S. at the exhibit, The Kaleidoscope of Textiles: Dress as Multidimensional Cultural Documents.  

Hand curated by graduate students studying textiles, fashion merchandising, and design, this exhibit features ethnic garments from the University of Rhode Island’s Historic Textile and Costume Collection (HTCC). They represent the ethnic diversity and sociocultural richness of our population and promote respect and understanding of cultural groups in the United States.
