At 2PM this afternoon, the Quilt Museum will host “Sunday at the Museum – Tradition Meets Contemporary,” with Pat Pauly.
As a curator for exhibits such as “Quilts Uncovered: Treasures from Genesee Country Village and Museum” and “Quilts 20/20” Pat Pauly gives an expansive look at the long history of quilt making, and its change and rebirth in the twenty-first century. Presenting over 400 images in the span of an hour, she takes a fast-paced look at the craft that has endured in America for nearly 250 years. Hold on to your seats.
