September 1993 

 

Tammy L Deck was outgrowing her home studio in Bolingbrook, IL and began searching the DuPage County suburbs to find this off-beat commercial space at 26 E Quincy St, Westmont, IL- (Chicago Near)

​

In partnership with her mother, JoAnn Deck, TLD Design Center & Gallery was launched.

 

Initially the space functioned as Tammy's fiber art studio with a micro Gallery to show & sell contemporary ArtWear and ArtWork of this mother/daughter team.   Soon after opening to the public they began hosting juried theme exhibits for local and non local artists.

​

June 1995: in response to repeated inquiries, Tammy began offering creative art classes starting with Beginner Loom Weaving, Hand Knitting & Textile Design.  Over the years, The Design Center class roster grew to 150 different options in various art mediums via guest artists.  Students and customers are also able to shop for yarn, threads, wool fiber, fabrics, glass, weaving looms, beads, metals and other creative art materials, tools and supplies for their own artistry and making.
