Quilt National Tour
Quilt National, organized by The Dairy Barn Arts Center in Athens, Ohio, showcases the finest contemporary quilts from artists around the world. For over 40 years, this renowned biennial has challenged the boundaries of quiltmaking by showcasing innovative works that merge craft, design, and fine art. Since 1983, Quilt National has toured across the country and beyond, with each collection traveling for approximately two years after its premiere in Athens.
