Spencer Museum Quilt Show


Quilting Time & Space

Spencer Museum of Art
University of Kansas campus

June 8 through August 29

From the Museum website:

 
"This summer, the Spencer Museum of Art will explore cross-cultural connections through the art of quilting. Quilts representing confluences of tradition and place will be on display in the museum’s Central Court, where their juxtaposition will underscore the disparate ideas, customs, and materials that were stitched together both by historic and by contemporary quilters.



This exhibition is organized and curated by the Spencer Museum advanced level student interns from 2009-2010: Chassica Kirchhoff, Sooa Im, Natalie Svacina, Rachel Voorhies, Olena Chervonik, Robin Bang, Rachel Harris and Jennifer Scheer."

Kaw Valley Quilters Guild volunteers helped with the exhibit, preparing the quilts for show by stitching on sleeves.
