Sew to Speak (SAQA Regional)

https://www.councilforthearts.net/Sew to Speak explores ideas of meaning in textile art by showing how contemporary art quilters express themselves in their work.

These artists express emotions, such as joy, love, pride, and grief. They express identities, such as heritage, nationality, family, or gender. They use quilting to express opinions or support causes.

Organized by the DC/DE/MD/WV Region of SAQA and also including art by members of SAQA’s NC/VA and PA Regions, this exhibition shows work by 32 quilt artists from the mid-Atlantic area. Juror Deb Cashatt's work is also on display.
