The Green Room

It’s quilt show-and-tell time! As part of the Stitched 2019 festival, Crosstown Arts is creating a video entitled “This Quilt.”

Did you make a quilt that has a story? Is there an heirloom in your family that needs its time in the spotlight? Did your newborn receive a quilt from a friend?

Bring it into The Green Room at Crosstown Arts on March 30 between 10 am and 2 pm, and we will add you and your quilt to the film. The video will debut at the STITCHED festival at Crosstown Arts May 10, 2019 and run through July. Mark your calendar and be part of the fun!

Let us know if you can make it! RSVP to stitched2019@gmail.com.
