“The Art of the Quilt” is a vibrant celebration of contemporary fiber art. The exhibition brings together more than 80 quilted works created by artists from across the southeastern United States, showcasing the remarkable diversity of artistic voices and quilting traditions in the region.
Inspired by the theme “Journey,” artists used a wide range of techniques, styles, and personal narratives to reflect on the many journeys that have shaped their lives, whether physical, emotional, spiritual, or creative.
The exhibit features traditional bed quilts, art quilts, wearable textiles, and innovative mixed-media pieces. Each work demonstrates how quilting has evolved into a sophisticated art form, using color, texture, pattern, and stitching to tell compelling stories and express individual perspectives.
This biennial exhibition is curated by master quilter Linda M. Fiedler and Betty Blessin.
