On Monday we attended the Community and Family Night at the
Springville Museum of Art. It was great! They had their 37th Annual Quilt Show, which is an exhibition of quilts from around the state. There were some amazing patterns, my mom would have definitely loved the exhibition. They also had The Art of Topaz exhibition, which has art depicting the Japanese-Americans during World War II at an internment camp in Utah. Udine was very intrigued by the history of it, we had no idea this had happened here in Utah. The kids were not too enthusiastic about the exhibitions, but the exhibitions were just the side note of the evening.
The Community and Family Night at the museum was great, I would definitely recommend it. It started with a little presentation about one of their exhibitions, this time was the quilts. Then we had an entertainment show, this time was a family performing with fiddles and banjos. Then they had a kids workshop where the kids were able to paint their own quilts. The kids had a blast and it was a great activity for a Monday night!
Here are some quilts from the exhibition:
