Every year the Springville, Utah Art Museum has a quilt show. I try and go every year because they are just so much fun. For a long time in our house, we did Friday Museum days. We are surrounded by hundreds of free, family friendly museums. It is so fun. I would take my kids to a variety of art shows, cultural museums, children's museums, history museums, old villages and buildings, forts, etc. We loved it. I couldn't keep up after my daughter Kindergarten year because I had to work a friday afternoon class the past year. However, we do make special trips to see the things I am most interested in. This years quilt show had a whole floor of red and white quilts on the children's exhibit floor. They had the opportunity to create quilt blocks with shapes on paper. It was so much fun!! I got to walk around taking pictures and enjoyed the quilts while they had a great activity to do.
They finished right as I finished looking at and admiring the 30 plus quilts. It was a super fun day.
Then we headed up stairs to the 10 or so galleries that were full of quilts upstairs and the kids each picked their favorite quilt to take a picture with.
It is so inspiring seeing the artistry of these various quilters. I hope that I can enjoy many more years of creating and being inspired by others.
Hope you enjoyed.
