Quilt Art

Quilt Art welcomes applications for membership. The group is looking for evidence of an original independent artistic voice and excellent workmanship. A commitment to the group and a willingness to participate in running it is essential. All members have to take on jobs like being treasurer, finding venues, host meetings and a lot of other things.
We have 4 meetings a year – usually two in the UK and two elsewhere where members live. Two of the meetings are weekend meetings where we also have time to look at work. The one-day meetings are usually filled up with ordinary business talk about practical things involved in running a touring exhibition group. Group members are expected to come to at least two meetings a year.

You are welcome to check out our venue page and come and talk to us at the openings.

The application process is in two stages.

1. At least images of 7-8 pieces of work made within the last three years showing the whole quilt including edges and close up shots are to be sent by email or uploaded to Dropbos, WeTransfer or similar, along with an artist’s statement and CV. Please add titles, dates, a brief outline of techniques and captions to help the group when they are viewed and discussed.

2. Applicants who are successful at this stage will be invited to attend an interview and bring examples of their work. This will be at the home of one of the members. A final decision will be taken after the interview.
