Quilt Nihon Exhibit at Southeastern Quilt & Textile Museum16th Quilt Nihon Exhibit at Southeastern Quilt & Textile Museum 4/1/2024 – 6/22/2024
Southeastern Quilt & Textile Museum, 306 Bradley St, Carrollton, GA 30117 The Southeastern Quilt and Textile Museum is excited to be one of four museums in the United States to host the Quilts Japan: 16th Annual Quilt Nihon exhibition. This outstanding exhibit will be on display from March 27th - June 22, 2024. The Southeastern Quilt and Textile Museum is the exclusive southeastern host for this celebrated exhibition, which premiered at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum before traveling internationally. It features the most extraordinary and innovative works from the biennial competition of the Japanese Handicraft Instructors' Association (JHIA), which sponsors the largest international quilt contest in Japan and one of the most prestigious in the world. This year’s Quilt Nihon Exhibition features 50 award-winning works, including traditional and modern quilts, along with 13 entries from the competition’s newest category, miniature quilts. For 50 years, the JHIA has promoted handcrafted arts in Japan by educating and training instructors in eight specialties: quilt making, knitting, embroidery, lace making, painting, weaving, leatherwork, and flower art. The JHIA boasts 7,000 certified quilt instructors among its 12,000 members. Their biennial Quilt Nihon Exhibition is a must-see for quilt aficionados who marvel at the complexity of these master works, as well as first-time visitors who simply appreciate their beauty. The Southeastern Quilt and Textile museum is proud to be able to bring a small sampling of the Japanese Handicraft Instructors' Association works to Georgia and looks forward to connecting the public with this outstanding exhibition. |
