Quilts! Camp Open House 2009
August 19, 2009
Hard to believe that we just wrapped up our 8th Quilts! camp. Our Open House was a success, CASA was there to recieve the community service quilts made for them, the girls performed and shared highlights of what they accomplished during the 10 weeks. The quilts on display within Youth Arts Corps were the girls personal quilts, they were so colorful and impressive! A huge thanks to all of the artists that worked with us this summer, you made a lasting impact on a lot of young up and coming fiber artists!
Quilts for CASA
August 4, 2009
Each year our Quilts! camp members create around 50 – 60 community service quilts that are donated to an area organization in need. This year CASA is the recipient of the wonderful and warm quilts. Many girls tell us how much they enjoy giving back to their community, it’s a very rewarding part of camp!
