The new time capsule includes a diverse collection of artifacts contributed by corporate and individual members of AATCC. There are several cloth face coverings representing the importance of textiles during a global pandemic. A tea towel with a 2021 calendar highlights the art and science of digital textile printing while marking the year of burial. Other objects celebrate both the history and the future of textiles and of the AATCC organisation.
