ARTS ON GRAND TO HOST MONKEY WRENCH QUILT EXHIBIT

Arts on Grand will be hosting a Monkey Wrench Quilt Exhibit from Jan. 25-Mar. 6.
Through the centuries and especially in recent decades, individual expression and innovation have been fundamental to quilting.

In 1993, the Museum of the American Quilter’s Society (MAQS) developed an annual contest and exhibition to recognize both originality and tradition. The purpose of the contest is to “challenge quilt makers to develop innovative quilts from a different traditional pattern.”

Each fall quilts are chosen from slide entries, juried for awards, and then appear at MAQS as an exhibition the following spring. The exhibition then travels to other museums for two years, providing opportunities for quilters and the general public to view these stunning quilts.

Arts on Grand is located at 408 Grand Avenue, Spencer.
