Supporting Youth Through Fiber Arts
What sets the NWA Fiber Festival apart is its mission-driven foundation. Created in response to growing demand for accessible fiber arts in the region, the festival serves a dual purpose by nurturing the local textile community while investing in the next generation. All proceeds directly support Washington County 4-H youth development programs, funding camps, workshops, scholarships, and opportunities that help young people develop skills, confidence, and leadership abilities. Through 4-H, youth gain hands-on experience that extends far beyond the classroom, learning to become self-directing, productive members of society. Join the festival this November and support the cause. Show your support with official NWA Fiber Festival merchandise! Check out our short-sleeve t-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, and hoodies featuring the festival’s adorable sheep design. All proceeds go straight to the Washington County 4-H Foundation to support our youth development activities.
The NWA Fiber Festival offers you a chance to discover new crafts, connect with passionate makers, and celebrate the timeless art of working with fiber. Best of all, every moment you spend at the festival contributes to empowering the next generation of leaders in Washington County. See you there!
