Volcano Art Center is inviting all Hawaii Island quilters to its inaugural quilt show July 15 to Aug. 7 at the center’s Niaulani campus.
This year’s show, “Quilts in the Forest, Quilts in the Park,” is dedicated to the centennial celebration of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park as well as that of the National Park Service. HVNP celebrates its 100th birthday Aug. 1 and is sharing the park through a series of special programs for the public all through the year.
“Quilts in the Forest, Quilts in the Park,” with categories such as the Hawaiian Quilt, Find Your Park, Art to Wear, Bed Runner and Miniature Quilt, is open to all residents of Hawaii Island.
Quilters need to register online by May 27. Prospectus and entry forms are available at volcanoartcenter.org/gallery/artist-opportunities.
“Our vision for this year’s show is exciting for me as an artist who loves colors and textures in our rain forest environment,” says jewelry artist and amateur quilter Tad Sewell, committee chair for the quilt exhibit.
