A Celebration of Art and Activism: 8 Years of The March Quilts Project

The March Quilts Exhibition is opening at Birmingham’s Central Public Library.

We have a summer full of programs scheduled for this exhibition. For those who participated in TMQ8: A(MEND), both quilts from 2022 will be unveiled on May 6. The exhibition will be available to the public whenever the library is open. If you stop by, please tag your visit with #themarchquiltsproject.

ADMISSION INFO

We look forward to seeing you at the upcoming March Quilts Exhibition, which will showcase all 15 quilts from eight years of the project. This will also be the first presentation of both quilts from TMQ8 (2022) and they will be unveiled at the opening reception. While an RSVP is not required to attend any of these programs, it helps us know what to expect. If you have any questions, please send them to Lillis.
