In the Western Folklife Center Wiegand Gallery: Passed from<br />
person to person and generation to generation, traditional<br />
skills such as quiltmaking, embroidery, needlepoint<br />
and crosstitching have brought a legacy of handcrafted<br />
functional and decorative works into our daily lives. Today’s<br />
artists have access to sophisticated tools and global textiles<br />
that have significantly changed the cultural landscape.<br />
Stitching Art showcases the quilts and collections of six fabric<br />
artists who have taken great joy in honing stitching skills<br />
to create work that beautifully reflects personal interests,<br />
aesthetics, moods, and milestones. Exhibition supported by<br />
the Nevada Arts Council, a state and local agency; and the<br />
National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.<br />
