For six days in March, the 25-30th, the American Folk Art Museum will dramatically transform the Park Avenue Armory's historic Wade Thompson Drill Hall with 650 Red and White quilts from the private collection of Joanna S. Rose. Infinite Variety - Three Centuries of Red and White Quilts will be the largest exhibition of quilts ever held in New York City and the best part, IT IS FREE!

If that isn't enough enticement, in conjunction with the exhibit there will be a Quilt Conversation: Alex Anderson and Paula Nadelstern Moderated by Meg Cox. This will be held Saturday, March 26, 2011 at 4pm in the Tiffany Room of the Park Avenue Armory. Alex, Paula, and Meg will discuss current topics in quilts and respond to questions from the audience. This will be followed by a wine reception and book signing. For more information, click here.
And now, for your further enjoyment, a video with just a small slice of the exhibit, shared with us by the American Folk Art Museum.
