AFTERNOON LECTURE // 4-5 PM

When Judy Chicago's "The Dinner Party," was first exhibited, women were deeply moved. They wanted to contribute to it. The International Honor Quilt was launched with a call for 2 foot X 2 foot X 2 foot triangular quilts, each celebrating a woman, a group of women, or a woman's issue. More than five hundred triangles were made. Learn the stories of some of the triangles—fun, inspiring, and heartbreaking. www.danajonesquilts.com
