AND THERE’S MORE! Together with Modern Richmond, we present “Modern Makers: A Conversation on Modern Quilting” on Wednesday, August 13. Purchase tickets here.

Modern Richmond and CVAMQG are bringing together an incredible panel of modern quilt artists whose work is featured in the exhibition to share their journeys, design processes, and what “modern quilting” means in today’s creative world. The panel will also share their insights on what makes the quilts in the “Unbound” exhibit modern. Whether you’re a seasoned quilter, a curious beginner, or just love bold textile art, this is a night you won’t want to miss.

Maggie Schubert, Modern Richmond Chair and a Modern Quilter, will moderate the panel featuring artists Candra Parker, President of the Board of Directors for the Modern Quilt Guild, Donna Blalock, Kat Van Bourgondien, and Wanda Ann Dotson.

Come early and join the workshop led by Maggie Schubert, “A Modern Take on English Paper Piecing,” from 4 p.m.-5:30 p.m. Attendees will learn how to make their own English paper-pieced (EPP) curve with exposed stitches.

This workshop requires separate registration from the panel discussion.
