It premieres in Philadelphia, the cradle of liberty, at Moore College of Art \u0026amp; Design during the summer of 2026, and then travels to three other prestigious venues. Between forty and fifty innovative art quilts and quilted artworks will explore the broad meaning of independence and freedom of expression—from reflections on constitutional rights and democracy to interpretations of America’s multicultural heritage, music, and history. All works connect with America's storied past, yet exemplify exciting conceptual and technical departures from tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eAs part of the quarter-millennial celebration of the events of 1776, this exciting exhibition will pay homage to our past as it expands public engagement with contemporary textile art, advancing SAQA’s mission for recognition of the art quilt as a fine art medium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"pqw in house","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732733210879,"sku":"ma4373","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0465\/3151\/0434\/files\/saqacatalog1.jpg?v=1782318041","url":"https:\/\/penningtonquilts.com\/products\/art-quilters-celebrate-independence","provider":"Pennington Quilt Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
