This fall, a piece of Gee’s Bend artistry could be yours.
For generations, the women of Gee’s Bend have transformed everyday scraps into extraordinary works of art — creating bold, improvisational quilts that have found their way into museums around the world.
Now, three people will have the chance to carry that tradition with them.
Register for the 5th Annual Airing of the Quilts Festival at the $40+ General Admission level during September and you’ll be automatically entered to win one of three one-of-a-kind quilted bags handmade by Gee’s Bend quilter Annie Lou Square. These are the actual bags pictured — no reproductions, no mass production, just handmade pieces of Gee’s Bend artistry.
You don’t have to be at the festival to win. Winners will be announced live from the festival stage on October 3.
And your registration does more than enter you in the giveaway. It helps support the work of preserving Gee’s Bend’s quilting tradition, history and legacy for generations to come.
Come experience the artistry, stories and community of Gee’s Bend at the Airing of the Quilts Festival on October 3.
Register by September 30 at www.airingofthequilts.org.
