The Hannibal Square Story Quilters quilt group is dedicated to supporting all quilt artists in a creative community.  They share techniques, equipment, and supplies to make meaningful art while supporting each other in all aspects of their lives. They listen to each other’s stories and work together to preserve their cultural heritage.  Their informal motto is “DIYWH” or “Do it yourself with help,” encouraging everyone to try different quilting techniques apart from the workshop model.  They learn from each other, have fun and enjoy life.

The exhibition, collectively curated by the group, gives each quilter an opportunity to tell her unique story.  Exhibit themes include artist reflections on the Black experience, spirituality, justice, femininity, family, and nature.  Artists will reflect on their works with the public in celebration of Black History Month.
