What is the SUN BATH QUILT TOUR ?
Sun Bath Quilt Tour is a self-guided driving tour of Easthampton’s household quilts on display in yards and on porches, from 8am-8pm on August 8, 2020.
(Raindate: August 9.)
Why is it happening? Who is it for?
In the midst of chaotic times it is important to shine our lights brightly. Easthampton’s own SUN BATH Quilt Tour offers an opportunity for folks throughout the community to celebrate our city, our “Center of the Universe”, by sharing art from within our own collections. By creating a “Quilt Display for a Day” on front porches and windows, we will offer a driving self-guided tour of quilts for people of all ages to safely enjoy, bringing their light to all the corners of our city.
Community sourced quilts will be displayed outside our own private homes- out windows, on porches and lawns.
