Walkway Connections: Oh, Freedom! Quilt Exhibit
Sunday, June 22, 2025 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM
The Mid-Hudson Antislavery History Project (MHAHP) and the Oh, Freedom! Quilting Project present a short slide show of the history of slavery and antislavery in Dutchess County. On display are commemorative history quilts that were created by local quilt circles and invited quilt artists. There is also a simple make and take project available for community participation. The quilts will be on display from 1 – 3:30 p.m. so the public will have the opportunity to learn about the art and the history from those involved with this project. The Walkway Connections presentation begins at 2 p.m. This event takes place at the East Gate Plaza in Poughkeepsie (61 Parker Avenue). It is free to attend and appropriate for all ages.
