Celebrate Arizona’s birthday with creative works of art in fabric that display the landscapes, cultures, historical places and events unique to Arizona. Contemporary quilt makers throughout the state have created original quilts specifically for this Arizona Centennial exhibit. The result is a visually stunning collection of art and history.
*** Arizona’s Official Centennial Commemorative Quilt will also be on display during the exhibition opening and through March 3, 2012. ***
“100 Years ~ 100 Quilts” is a collaborative project between the Arizona Historical Society and the Arizona Centennial Quilt Project (a Project of the Arizona Quilters Hall of Fame), and is made possible in part through a grant by the Arizona Humanities Council. The exhibition has been designated an Arizona Legacy Project.
