Welcome to another Podcast produced by the Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture.  This program focuses on the MAC’s exhibit Quiltscapes which opened December 6, 2008 and runs through May 17, 2009.  The exhibit features forty-three quilts from the MAC’s permanent collection and tells a story of textile preservation and conservation as well as quilt history.  At the exhibit’s opening festivities on December 7th, Senior Curators Marsha Rooney and Laura Thayer’s talk focused on eight individual quilts.  As you listen to the curators’ comments, view those eight quilts as a whole, or click on the titles beneath each thumbnail for a closer look.
