Exhibitions and Events


The Royal School of Needlework contributes to a number of off-site exhibitions and events throughout the year.  These combined with our student showcases and other special events here at the RSN help publicise our invaluable work in keeping the art of hand embroidery alive. 

We’re exhibiting at two European needlework shows in early 2012

L’Aiguille en Fête - Paris needlework fair (9-12 February 2012) www.aiguille-en-fete.com
Handwerkbeurs in Zwolle - the Netherlands annual craft fair (16-19 February 2012) - www.handwerkbeurs.nl/zwolle
