Laney Museum hosts
annual quilt exhibition
for November
The Lucy Craft Laney Museun of Black History
will present its annual Quilt Exhibit for the month of
November. An opening reception will be held on
Sunday, November 4, 2001, from 3 to 5 p.m.
The quilt exhibit is an annualevent that started in
1991 under the leadership of Mis. Hertha Blount and
Mrs. Theresa White. The exhibit consists of old and
new quilts, and because of its success, has become an
annual event.
The old quilts bring back memories of women
gathering around a big wooden frame with a large
sheet of pieced together scrsps of cloth. Some of the
cloths were bits of feed sadks, flour sacks and corn
sacks. Others were bits do fabric left over from a
newly cut made dress or other garments. All of those
made a wonderful array o colored patchwork. The
women would work late hours in the evenings to
complete each tedious tesk; however, it gave them
time for wonderful fellowship. The result of their
work also produced an heirloom to pass from genera
tion to generation.
This year, two special quilts will be on exhibition.
The “Peace Quilt” is aresult of a collaborative effort
with the Morris Museum of Art, the Gertrude Herbert
Institute of Art, the Art Factory and the Lucy Craft
Laney Museum. The second quilt depicts the history
of the Augusta Alumnae chapter of Delta Sigma
Theta Sorority, Inc
If you are a quilt collector and would like to partici
patein the exhibit, please contact the museum at 724-
3576.
The Historic Dent’s Undertaking Establishment
will sponsor the reception and music will be provided.
For further information, please call (706) 724-3576.
The museum is located at 1116 Phillips Street.
