New England Quilt Museum
Our guild is a supporting member of the New England Quilt Museum in Lowell, MA. As quilters, we feel very fortunate to have a museum dedicated to the art of quilting right here in New England. Each year we raise funds to support the exhibitions and events at the New England Quilt Museum, fundraisers have included the small quilt auction at our biennial quilt show and other activities. The museum is located at 18 Shattuck St in Lowell, MA. For information on the visiting the museum and their current exhibitions, please visit their website NEQM.org.
