About the Quilt Show
The Community Library of Allegheny Valley (Harrison) has hosted a quilt show every winter for twenty-two years. Quilts are submitted by community members and displayed in the library for several weeks each January and February. People are then invited to vote for their favorites in three categories: hand-quilted, machine-quilted, and wall hanging.
23rd Annual Quilt Show Information (2021)
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting limited access to the library this year, we have decided to conduct our annual quilt show virtually.
Voting runs January 1st through January 23rd
Winners Announced on January 26th
Quilts will be displayed virtually on our website and our Facebook page.
