In collaboration with past Visiting Artist Katy Mixon (2022), the Gibbes is excited to present a new public art project during Art Charleston. Spool of Friends will be a large, immersive, communally created quilted painting in the style of an American album quilt. Students and families in the community will create individual blocks which Katy will piece into one large quilt. Using gradients of color and recycled materials, Spool of Friends will be a record of shared creativity and a collection of tokens of friendship and love, celebrating the Charleston community bound together by connecting threads.
Spool of Friends will be on display April 23-27, 2025.
Date
April 23, 2025 - April 27, 2025
Location
Gibbes Museum of Art 35 Meeting Street
