ABOUT THE EXHIBIT:
The 36th Annual Gathering of Quilts exhibition displays the creative talents of the Cedarhurst Quilters, celebrating their love for sewing, fabrics, and the art of quilting with its long and venerable history. Traditional and non-traditional quilts colorfully adorn the walls of this striking exhibit held in the Beal Grand Corridor and Beck Family Center Gallery. This exhibit attracts quilt enthusiasts and visitors from all over the region and is always embraced as a community favorite.
The Cedarhurst Quilters meet the first Thursday of the month. They host a ‘mini-workshop’ at 9:00 a.m. and a regular business meeting at 12:30 p.m. Throughout the year they plan annual retreats and create ‘service quilts’ that are donated to local charities.
