Torah Quilt Display - Free to all

“Sacred Patterns: Quilted Meditations on the 54 Torah Portions”
The First Five Books of the Hebrew Bible
Quilts By Deborah Hagen

June 3, 2011 – Mid August 2011

This exceptional display at The National Quilt Museum, explores the depth and wonder of the Torah (the first five books of the Hebrew Bible) through the art of quilting. Each of the five quilts tells important stories from the book it represents.

Deborah Hagen will hold a one hour lecture at the Museum explaining her work at 2 p.m. both Saturday June 4 and Sunday June 5. This exhibit and lecture series is free in the Museum Gallery Hall thanks to its sponsors: Temple Israel and Fountain Avenue United Methodist Church.

Due to the inspirational nature of these quilts, this free display makes a perfect outing for any faith-based group. Groups of 10 or more will be admitted to the main Museum galleries for the discounted group rate of $5. So come and enjoy!

These quilts are on loan from the Agudas Achim Congregation in Austin, TX.
