The annual exhibition of Israel’s Quilters Association-Registration form

“Call to Participate”-in the annual exhibition of the “Israeli Quilters Association”

“Together”

The exhibition will be shown in The Jerusalem Theater from March 1st 2024 until April 30th, 2024. It will then move to Heichal Ha’Tarbut in Petah Tikva for the month of May 2024.

The subject chosen this year is Together.
In the past, we did an exhibition on Alone, which was our feeling during Covid

and now that it has passed, the opposite – we are together.

The word together as described in the Webster Dictionary: In company or conjunction, to unite.

This is not a political statement!! The work is not to have any political reference, only to express our personal feelings.
