25 Years of Weaving Emotions, Culture, and Creativity into Threads That Connect Us, On View Through June 15, 2025

Celebrating a Quarter of a Century of Soulful Storytelling Through the Art of Fiber: 25 Years of Weaving Emotions, Culture, and Creativity into Threads That Connect Us is now on view through June 15, 2025. On display are over 60 amazing quilts that celebrate historically black colleges and universities, the Divine 9, and other important African American traditions. These quilts, are much more than intricate works of art, they are stories woven with history, culture, and emotion. They share personal narratives, invoke memories, and give voice to generations past, present, and future. The quilts are designed by the Brown Sugar Stitchers Quilt Guild (BSSQG), a vibrant and diverse community of 142 quilters from the metro-Atlanta and thirteen other states. Since its founding in 2020, BSSQG has been steadfast in its mission to foster the art and history of quilting, with a special focus on African American traditions.
