The Lemon Grove Historical Society presents "The Art of the Quilt" with quilt historian Sylvia Wallace whose quilt collection complements her eloquence as she traces the quilt from the Egyptians to modern times. From shroud, to domestic necessity, to political statement, to work of art, quilts have emerged not only as treasured family heirlooms but as museum-quality textile artworks. Marvel at the minute stitching of yore, the audacious designs of now, and everything in between as Wallace takes us on a ride through history filled with fun facts and illuminating social dynamics.
