PRESIDENT’S CHALLENGE: INSPIRED BY ART
Is there an artist who inspires you? Or perhaps you have a favorite work of art? There are so many options to choose from such as the soft palette of the Impressionists, bold lines of Art Deco, or vibrant colors of Pop Art.
This year’s challenge is to create a quilt or quilted object inspired by the art world. Items can be any size but must be quilted. Have fun!
RAFFLE QUILT
Thanks to everyone who bought tickets for our 2025 group quilt. We donated $1500+ from the proceeds to the Columbus Metropolitan Library Foundation.
