Posted

CANTON -- The Canton Free Library, 8 Park St., will present a free lecture by Hallie E. Bond, curator at the Adirondack Museum, titled “Common Threads: Adirondack Quilts Tell Their Stories,” 6:30 p.m. April 18 in the Paige Room.

Quilters are invited to bring Adirondack and North Country quilts to the library starting April 16 so they can be displayed the afternoon of the program.

Bond will refer to the quilts during her lecture and welcomes the opportunity to speak with area quilters from 3 p.m. until the start of the program. In the lecture, Bond will explore diverse influences on the region's quilting traditions, from plain and fancy bedcovers to stunning art quilts of the 21st century.
