Meeting Details
Join members of the Embroiderer's Guild of America who will be working on America's Tapestry in the library. Stop by to see the tapestry, talk with them about their work, and learn about the project.
In 2026, Americans will celebrate our country's 250th anniversary. To commemorate this occasion, America's Tapestry weaves together stories from our nation's founding through the medium of embroidery.
Thirteen embroidered panels have been designed by our creative team in collaboration with historical organizations from each of the original colonies. Embroiderers within each state, led by our state directors, are stitching the panels over 18 months. The Tapestry will be exhibited in prominent gallery spaces in 2026 and 2027.
