Art at the Library
Art Quilts by Cindy Irving. Irving’s working life was in education; as a special education teacher for 12 years and a vocational teacher for 28. She started quilting in 1970 after seeing a pattern in a magazine. For several years she worked with traditional patterns and taught quilting in adult education. Irving, who lives in Troy says,
“When my beds and closets were full of quilts I decided to make wall hangings. In my art quilts I use family, pets and nature for inspiration. My art palette is made up of fabric instead of paint. In my most recent wall hanging I was inspired by the monks who were ‘ Walking for Peace’. “ In 2015 she was chosen for a solo display at the 3 day Maine Quilts show at the Augusta Civic Center. Her work can be seen at the library whenever it is open or at a reception to meet Cindy on Thursday, April 2nd from 5:30-7:00. Light refreshments will be served and all are welcome!
Trad Music Jam starts April 4th.
