Australian Textile and Surface Design Association



ATASDA (Australian Textile Arts & Surface Design Association Inc.) is a national non-profit
organisation that was formed to support and showcase Australian Textile Artists and
Surface Designers, whose members are actively involved in holding events, workshops and
exhibitions designed to bring textile enthusiasts, professionals and educators together to
share knowledge and creativity.

The Maharajah’s Garden is ATASDA’s 2010 Travelling Suitcase Exhibition and our members
have prepared exquisite artworks to travel all over Australia. The Maharajah’s Garden is
designed to show how textiles can be art, and art can be textiles - inspiring others to try new
techniques using textiles and fibres.
