October 10 – TERESA DURYEA WONG – The Calling of Quilt Collectors (via ZOOM)

Quilt collectors play a critical role in the circle of life of art. By purchasing a quilt, the work of the artist is immediately validated, and the quilt obtains a monetary value that didn’t exist before. The collector also has a critical role in preserving quilts, and ideally, presenting them to viewers, either by hanging them in their home, or loaning them to museums. This lecture will explore the collections of major antique quilt collectors such as Joanna Rose, Eli Leon, and Robert and Ardis James, and why their vision and passion are so important to quilt preservation. In addition, you’ll be introduced to the collections of contemporary art quilt collectors Frank Klein, Marvin Fletchger, and Jack Walsh. Lastly, hear tips on how to have your own quilts acquired by collectors and museums.

April 9 – SHANNON SHIRLEY – An Eclectic Mix

Quilts of all styles, including quilts inspired by children’s artwork, quilts incorporating vintage needlework, art quilts, traditional and creative quilts labels . . . there is sure to be something to interest everyone! Shannon began quilting in 1989 and will share some of the lessons she has learned along the way. She started as a mainly self-taught quilter, machine piecer, and hand lap quilter. Over the years, she started taking technique classes to understand how quilters were creating the wonderful art quilts she was seeing at shows. She has always been eclectic in other areas of her life, and quilting is no different. She now uses any technique from her toolbox to achieve the end result . . . a beautiful, unique quilt.
