"The African-American Quilters of Baltimore was founded in 1989 by three African American quilters seeking the community of other African American quilters. Our primary goal was to offer support and information for a diversity of quilters in an environment of acceptance and welcome. AAQB was honored to be asked to create a quilt in recognition of Morgan State University president Dr. Earl S. Richardson's retirement. The completed quilt will be on display during the exhibition." “Anyone who attends the African-American Quilters of Baltimore’s every-other-year show will find an explosion of creativity!” Maryland Life Magazine, July 1, 2009

Weekend marketplace: Saturday & Sunday, August 7 & 8 from 12 noon – 4 pm. Quilted wall hangings and other fabric & fiber creations crafted by members will be for sale.
