It will examine quilt-making traditions prior to 1950, focusing on quilts and their makers in a regional context. The Grace is located at 102 Cypress. There is a small admission fee. The Center for Contemporary Arts is an alternative space and center for 45 artists and photographers. Thirteen studios are available for artists to rent.
Shows change monthly in each of the three galleries.
One of the galleries is devoted exclusively to photography. The community outreach programs that the CCA coordinates are Artwalk and Artreach. Artreach is a program that takes art to the disadvantaged and disabled. Weekly art lessons are held either at the center or at the location where the participants reside. Staff and volunteers at the close of each session host a reception and show featuring the work the new artists have created.
