Art That Moves. Design That Matters.

The Art of the Quilt

Finely crafted quilts and quilt traditions by the Murfreesboro Quilting Bees

Quilting tells stories through pattern, patience, and shared hands. This winter and spring, Todd Art Gallery and the MTSU Department of Art and Design are honored to host and sponsor a trio of events celebrating the work of the Murfreesboro Quilting Bees. From an afternoon fabric-weaving workshop and a sampler exhibition in the Glass Gallery to their annual quilt exhibition at Lane Agri Park, these events highlight quilting as both an art form and a living community tradition.
