Devoted to the rich weaving and textile traditions of Mexico and the world, this museum occupies a restored colonial building in the centre of Oaxaca. Its rotating exhibitions display garments, embroidery and cloth that showcase the techniques and symbolism of indigenous communities across the region and beyond. A shop supports local artisans, and workshops introduce natural dyes and backstrap-loom weaving. The courtyard and vaulted rooms make it a serene place to appreciate an art form central to Oaxacan identity.
