      • Each member is invited to enter one art quilt in this non-juried, open-themed show. There is no entry fee. Art can be listed for sale. Dimension is limited to a width and length of 50″ inches. The entry does not have to be a new piece, but it must adhere to these guidelines: original work only, meaning no kits, commercial patterns or panels.
      • Turn in will start at the August 15th monthly AQuA meeting and will end on August 30. If you cannot attend the 8/15 meeting a TBD location in town will be provided for you to arrange drop-off. Quilts will be delivered as a group to the Art Center, none individually.
      • This 2024 AQuA The Art Center Show form must be completed and preferably turned in at the 8/15 meeting.
