Mark you Calendars

You won't want to miss this event. In conjunction with the Roots and Heritage Festival, the Carnegie Center will be hosting the quilters of Gee's bend. Their story is incredible!

Quilters of Gee’s Bend
Thursday, September 3
5-7 pm at the Carnegie Center

Free and open to the public.

Presented by AGAPE Theater Troupe. The Quilters of Gee’s Bend are descendants
of 3 or 4 generations of female quilt makers. True artistry born from necessity, these
women have overcome great adversity through their love of quilt making. Mary Ann
Pettway and China Pettway will share their stories and display and offer quilts for
sale.

We hope to see you there!

~warmly~
