Every quilt shares a story told through fabric, colour, and design. Quilts can be an act of love. A collection of fabric scraps saved over the years. The result of weeks or months spent problem-solving, designing, cutting, and sewing. While each quilt is as individual as its maker, maybe you’ll find a familiar story within their stitches.

From the Canadian Arctic to the mountains of central Mexico, new research is shifting the long-standing western scientific narrative that human populations arrived in the Americas only 13,000 years ago.
Join us for an evening event that includes the premiere screening of Walking with Ancients, a full-length documentary that challenges viewers to rethink the history of humans in the Americas based on new and emerging archaeological research.
A wild east-coast celebration. In a slightly bigger kitchen.
