About the event
Complementing the museum’s Stitched Exhibit is the Airing of the Quilts, a cherished tradition where quilts are aired out not only for spring cleaning but to celebrate their craftsmanship.
Starting the evening of March 7th and going through March 8th, community quilts will be showcased at local downtown businesses, inviting the community to admire each quilt’s unique beauty and story while also supporting local businesses. You can get your personal guide brochure at the museum which will include a picture, the story and the location of each quilt.
A raffle for a donated antique quilt dating from the 1920s will be held during the event. People can buy raffle tickets for $5 each or 5 tickets for $15.
