Upcoming Exhibits

This exhibition, created by artists from around the world and curated by
Susanne Jones, focuses on the history of the battles for human, civil, and political rights, and their continuing developments today. This colorful new way to approach human rights answers the demand for new perspectives on the issues.

This exhibition features the winning and finalist quilts from around the world in a competition for the most innovative interpretations of the traditional Wheel of Fortune pattern.

Park Bench Stories consists of 39 art quilts that can best be described as figurative, representational fabric collages of people who have come to sit on a park bench. Every one of these pieces, whether a single person, a couple, or more people occupying the same space–tells a story.

Textile artist MJ Kinman blends her favorite subjects—quilts, gems, and Kentucky bourbon—into a stunning exhibit of light and color.

Lively, colorful, and skillfully made fabric “portraits” of endangered species bring them to real, vibrant life. Each portrait features fascinating animal and plant facts from rescuers, scientists, conservationists, and more: where they live, what their superpowers are, why they are at risk, and how we can help. Curated by Donna DeSoto.

This series focuses on miniature scale and explores the unlimited layout and design options of the Log Cabin pattern. Amy used over 60,000 individual fabric pieces for the quilts in this exhibition.

Quilt expert Mary W. Kerr joins 13 other textile historians to show why Southern quilts have a distinctiveness setting them apart, including factors like their patterns, use of tiny pieces, and specific color choices.
