The Friendship Quilt

This is the online edition of the The Friendship Quilt created in 1991 to honor Kentuck's founding director, Georgine Clarke, on the 20th anniversary of the Kentuck Arts Festival. It is now on display in the Ellis Teer Gallery of the Georgine Clarke Building located on the campus of the Kentuck Art Center. 1922 5th St. Northport, Alabama. You will find that many of the individual pieces are not identified. Kentuck invites you to contribute information you might have concerning any of the pieces. Our goal is to have a complete and informative guide to the collection and the artists who made it possible. Kentuck would like to thank the Clarke family for donating the quilt to our care. It will always be the center point of our permanent collection. We would also like to thank Sara Johnson who expertly photographed the individual pieces in the collection Please send inf ormation to: anden@kentuck.org
