Opening Reception: Friday, February 2, 2024 | 4:30–7pm

This exhibition features approximately 35 new quilts of varying sizes which were created over the last year by members of the Juneau Modern Quilt Guild. This exhibition showcases the joy and beauty of modern quilts through bold, colorful, expansive and/or minimalistic designs in which traditional patterns or blocks are transformed into new and surprising designs.

The Juneau Modern Quilt Guild formed in 2020 during the pandemic by a small group of quilters who wanted to inspire the local quilting community to explore modern styles of quilt design through education, sharing, and virtually gathering.   The Juneau Modern Quilt Guild is a Chapter of the national Modern Quilt Guild, which began in the United States in 2009 and has grown to include many thousands of members across the globe.

The Juneau Modern Quilt Guild’s exhibition will be on display at the City Museum in the Murray Gallery February 2^nd through February 24^th, 2024.
