We recently received this report from Baltimore:
“I wanted to share about our nice evening making quilt squares yesterday. We had 11 participants, which was a nice-sized group. One woman was from Boston!! But she was in Baltimore visiting family and saw the event listed in a local calendar.
The venue was nice. It’s a bar that hosts art events and rents art supplies. So, they had no problem with our markers, discussion and laughter. In our wrap-up, I learned about some advocacy organizations I hadn’t known about before. These participants are plugged in!
Next steps will be coordinating the quilt assembly. We have 2 volunteers from last night. Also, the American Visionary Art Museum invited me to present about the Welcome Quilt Project as part of this program.
Overall, everyone had a nice and meaningful time.
Thank you for creating and spreading the Welcome Quilt Project! I’ll keep you posted on our progress.”
