SUMMARY:Pieced Fabric: Historic Quilts of Ames
DESCRIPTION:Pieced Fabric: Historic Quilts of Ames \nON DISPLAY AUGUST 19 – OCTOBER 28\, 2017\, SWEENEY GALLERY \nQuilting has always been a social outlet for women in Iowa. Old quilts are personally created signed gifts from quilters of the past\, many of whom braved hardships as they sought a new life in a new land. They were made from materials collected by women who had little to spare. They are sturdy but worn from strawberry gathering\, picnics\, protecting furniture\, and birthing babies.  \nThroughout the years\, the Ames Historical Society has received a variety of beautiful quilts for their collection. Many of these quilts come from long-time Ames residents\, and tell the unique story of Ames history. The quilts tell the story of quilting as an art form for Iowa women.

SUMMARY:Saw You On The Sidewalks of Russia KAREN COOPER
DESCRIPTION:Saw You On The Sidewalks of Russia \n(видел тебя на тротуарах России!) \nOn Display August 18 – September 30\, 2017\, Community Gallery \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, August 26 from 3-5 P.M. \nDoesn’t matter if it’s the guy who walks in the door while we wait at the dentist’s office\, or the couple who walk by our table into the café\, the twenty-ish aged girl in the really short skirt and 4 inch heels\, or even the biker doing a wheelie on his BMX.  It’s a worldwide occupation\, this people watching gig. \nSaw You On The Sidewalks Of Russia  (видел тебя на тротуарах России!) is images\, paintings\,  of people that we want to be different\, because they live in a country on the other side of the world.  Are they so very different?  Not really – their hopes and dreams are a lot like ours.  \nWe are pulled in to see.  We are all human\, and no matter which side of the earth we live on\, no matter what the name of our country of residence\, no matter which side of the border we’re confined to – we watch. With this exhibit I give you the opportunity to watch through my artist eyes – to people watch with me.   Yes\, it’s a grand adventure. – Karen Cooper
