The Next Fifty - 2012

September 22 to October 21, 2012
International Fountain Pavilion at Seattle Center, Seattle, WA

"Illuminating Today’s Challenges, Imagining Tomorrow’s Possibilities”
Seattle Center 50th Anniversary Celebration

These CQA artists are pleased to be part of the celebration of such an iconic part of Seattle and Washington State. The quilts reflect the artists’ thoughts with both the present and the future.  Visitors can expect an array of contemporary artworks that are united by the relationship of textiles and thread, but also include elements as diverse as metal chain, painting, beadwork, cyanotype blueprinting, copper plumbing, and hand-dyeing.  We hope this will engage you to contemplate today’s challenges and tomorrow’s possibilities in innovation, civic action, and beyond.
