Quilt Art Exhibit
An exhibition of quilts created by the Northern Star Statler Quilters and the Minnesota Contemporary Quilters is on display at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. The public is invited to view both of the exhibits during regular hours at the Arts Center Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Each club’s quilts represents very different styles of quilting in one exhibition.
The Northern Star Statler members will be displaying their long arm quilting talents by interpreting each quilts character with color, design, texture, visual play and imagery. These award-winning quilts will be on display through September 15.
The Minnesota Contemporary Quilters are featuring their Melange a Trois exhibit. A mélange or blending or happy collision of three (trios) ideas, symbols, sizes, shapes, etc. into one glorious creation. The quilts were inspired by architecture or architectural elements. These innovative quilts are one-of-a-kind textiles that are sometimes embellished with beadwork, couching, buttons, tassels, found objects and polymer clay. The quilters feature unusual fabrics and techniques such as collage, fusing, burning, raw-edge finishes, painting, and foiling. The exhibit will be on display through September 19.
