The team from Quilt Alliance will be joining us to talk about their work to preserve the stories of today's quiltmakers from all over the US and around the world. Quilt Alliance is a non-profit organization established in 1993 with a mission to document, preserve and share our American quilt heritage by collecting rich stories that historic and contemporary quilts, and their makers, tell about our nation's diverse peoples and their communities.
The Austin Modern Quilt Guild will also host a Quilt Alliance weekend on Saturday, November 9th at the Southeast Health and Wellness Center. Stay tuned for more information about how to participate!
The Austin Modern Quilt Guild is hosting Quilt Alliance for the day to film and capture Austin quilter's history in the form of either a Go Tell It! video or a Quilters' Save Our Stories Video. Stay tuned for details about how to participate as we get closer to the date!
Go Tell It! is a video documentation project designed to preserve the stories of quilts as told by their makers or owners. One person. One quilt. One camera. Three minutes. Another quilt story saved!
Quilters’ Save Our Stories is a grassroots oral history project preserving the stories of today’s quiltmakers from all over the U.S. and around the world. Collection is archived at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress and the Louie B. Nunn Center for Oral History at the University of Kentucky Libraries.
