We went this year, and it was interesting, but NOT at all about the spectacular textiles of Oaxaca (it was a middle-eastern exhibit). It absolutely should be on the world-renowned weaving, embroidery, etc. of the region. More

It is a small museum and they provide you with a great little book about each of the textiles! More

We almost didn't go in because we were running out of time. So glad we did. They had a wonderful collection of Pakistani rugs, giving Oaxaca a more "worldy" feel. More

Best place to see Oaxaca and Mexican textile creations in the perfect small-museum setting. Great workshops and lectures if you're in town for a few days. Not to be missed! More

This is a small museum and free. The show we saw was weavings from Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, etc. A natural dye expert was about to give a free workshop there. More

This was a beautiful quiet building and display. There was a nice guide to the exhibits from other countries but none for the local textiles displayed. I was a little dissappointed, had hoped to learn about the local textiles but did not. More

You don't have to be interested in textiles to appreciate and enjoy this museum, but it's a plus if you do. The building is lovely and the exhibits I've seen there are unique and informative. It's just a really special place. More
