Glass Quilts at the IQSC
In December 2012, artist Carrie Strope Sohayda, spent a week with K through fifth grade students at Clinton elementary school building a glass quilt that will be on display at the International Quilt Study Center from April 30 to May 7, 2013. The opening reception will be held during May’s first Friday event from 4:30 to 7 PM and is free and open to the public. In addition to the glass quilts, there will be a slideshow of pictures from the artist residency, as well as a coloring station where visitors will be able to design their own quilt blocks using the same process applied by Clinton students in designing their quilt.
