Exhibit: A Cloth of Earth and Sky
The Healing Power of Nature through the Eyes of African American Quilters
Every culture has found ways to restore body, mind, and spirit in nature. In this exhibit, African-American quilters from the Great Lakes region interpret how plants, gardens, and nature are embedded in cultural awareness and expressions of health. The exhibit includes contemporary works that express cultural legacy based in the art of quilting related to individual and shared healing. Students from Flint's Eagle's Nest Academy also contributed works for display in the exhibit. Sponsored by the Great Lakes African American Quilters Network & Matthaei-Nichols
