UPDATED TO ADD: Submissions are now closed. Think about what you want to work on for next year’s show!
Members of Indy MQG and Akoma Ntoso MQG are encouraged to submit QUILTS and QUILTED ITEMS to this year’s show at Garfield Park Art Center, on display July 1–29. The public is clamoring to see our creative output!
STEP #1: Choose which pieces you’d like to have on display. Quilts are the obvious choice but maybe you also make quilted bags, quilted pillows, quilted clothing, etc. Everything quilted is eligible!
Did you make a mini quilt using the IMQG logo colors for last year’s challenge? That’s this year’s challenge too! You are welcome to have it on display again.
Did you make a mini quilt using the IMQG logo colors for this year’s challenge? Great!
STEP #2: Fill out a submission form for each piece you’d like to have in the show. You may have to scroll to see the whole form, FYI.
IMQG MINI QUILT CHALLENGE — You do have to submit a form but you do not have to pay a fee. All challenge quilts that meet the guidelines will automatically be eligible for display pending final approval by Garfield Park Arts Center.
STEP #3: Once you have submitted one form for each of your pieces, use the dropdown below to submit your payment. The exhibition and public reception are funded by submission fees.
Remember: do not count your mini quilt for IMQG’s color challenge toward your total number of quilts when selecting how many submissions to pay for.
Step #4: Send photos of your submitted pieces to exhibition [at] indymqg [dot] com. Nothing fancy! Just something GPAC can use to verify that each piece is appropriate for hanging in a public gallery.
You can send any questions and concerns to that email address too.
STEP #5: Put the public reception for Exhibition 2022: A Modern Quilt Show on your calendar: July 8 from 6–9 PM!
STEP #6: Drop off your submissions at IMQG’s June meeting. Send a message to exhibition [at] indymqg [dot] com to make alternate arrangements if you can’t make it to Eastgate Christian Church on June 11 between 11 AM and 4 PM.
