For our 28th annual Art Quilts exhibition, the tension between pushing boundaries versus adhering to tried-and-true methods plays out in fiber form. We invited rule-breakers and traditionalists alike to interpret the theme in a variety of ways, including applying it to physical techniques, materials, construction methods, personal narratives, or commentary on social, cultural and political concerns. All submissions – traditional, unconventional, or a combination of both - were considered for craftsmanship, originality, design, and concept.

As we drive air-conditioned cars between air-conditioned houses and air-conditioned jobs, the environment can go woefully unnoticed and sometimes unappreciated, even if it is physically close. Gina DeGideo, Daniella Napolitano, and Rebecca Pipkin invite viewers to roll down their windows and connect with the natural world that surrounds them.
