These prize-winning artists have been featured both in national and international exhibits. Books, magazines and social media platforms have shown many of their works. State Fair of Texas Ribbons grace the homes of many members, including two Best of Show Blue Ribbons (2021 & 2024). The Quilting Sisters of Color’s dazzling works are anchored by their four pillars of commitment – Creativity, Love, Inspiration and Community. “She saw a need!” Come be a part of what 30 years have produced.\nThe Art Gallery at the Lewisville Grand Theater is open to the public Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and during public events.
