The Texas Quilt Museum offers two new outstanding exhibits. The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo Prize Winners and Fiber Art Now: Excellence in Fibers III will be on display from May 2- August 31, 2024.

As unlikely a combination as it may sound, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo offer a different competition that does not involve livestock. Yearly, the show promotes its unique quilt contest. The contest is divided into Adult and Youth categories. The Museum will display the Blue Ribbon winners from both of them, totaling 35 works in Galleries I and II.

The exhibit also included some offerings from the local La Grange, Texas, high school. The art students created some striking examples under the theme of “Western Art.”

The museum will showcase its Fiber Art Now: Excellence in Fibers III exhibit, with a total of 19 works on display. Contemporary fiber and textile art is always compelling, and this international collection shows why. The exhibit was organized by the Fiber Art Now
magazine.

The Texas Quilt Museum is located in La Grange, Texas, and is open Thursday through Saturday, so make your plans before these exhibits disappear.
