40 X 40 @ 40 - NEW WORKS BY THE MANHATTAN QUILTERS GUILD

​

This exhibition marks the 40th anniversary of Manhattan Quilters Guild, celebrating the signature styles of our 21 members. What began as a small group of strangers responding to an ad in Quilters Newsletter Magazine -- novice quilters sitting around a dining room table in Manhattan – has progressed into a select group of established artists who continue to meet in Manhattan. Our work, rooted in traditional craft, has evolved into fiber art forms that often go beyond quilts.

​

Like Manhattan itself, our membership is cosmopolitan and international. We bring our stories, our skills, our diverse interests to the table. We work hard. We share. We create, each maintaining a unique voice, even as we inspire each other.

​

In addition to being professional exhibiting artists, we are designers, gallerists, curators, teachers, writers, bloggers, mentors, and entrepreneurs.
