Celebrating 40 years of quilts

Milestone quilting exhibition finds new home just for 2023

The Hamilton Quilters are in celebration mode and not even the temporary closire of the Hamilton Gallery can put a dampner on their anniversary exhibition.

With the gallery’s disruption to normal open hours the Hamilton Quilters annual exhibition has been tansofrmed into a pop-up exhibition in The Hub shopping centre, Hamilton. ‘A Touch of Ruby’ celebrates 40 Years of Hamilton Quilters Inc. The exhibition showcases over 16 beautiful and intricate quilts and wall hangings created by members, with each quilter responding to the Ruby Anniversary theme with their own interpretation.

Visitors will have the opportunity to meet the makers personally and see the craftmanship at work as quilts are being created, since the organisation’s 16 members will be manning the exhibition space and working on quilts during opening hours.

The exhibition is open Monday to Friday from 10.30am to 3.30pm until Friday.
