The National Museum of Women in the Arts has a new show about quilts that is so touching and beautiful, I hope you make a point of attending. Routed West: Twentieth Century American Quilts in California is so much more than its title implies. It’s a quintessentially American story of female-led artistry ––the kind that tends to be largely ignored and lumped with what’s been typically classified as “the domestic arts.” Through quilts collected by a psychotherapist who became fixated on these beautiful works of art and ingenuity, and expertly curated by Elaine Y. Yau at the Berkeley Art Museum. This show runs through January of 2027, so you have time to plan your visit. Guys. Should we start a quilting bee?
