About this event
The Art Institute’s historic exhibition, Embroidered Traditions from Morocco to Afghanistan, highlights SWANA region textiles and dress practices. For millennia, these garments and adornments—featuring thread, coins, beads, and amulets—have served as powerful symbols of community, identity, social status, and cultural heritage across continents.
