The Iowa Quilt Museum welcomes quilters, quilt lovers, history buffs, and all appreciators of American art and culture.
Our mission is to promote appreciation of the American quilt and the art of quilting through displays of quilts and information about quilt history.

Retrospective
Iowa Quilt Museum 10 Year Anniversary
Join the Iowa Quilt Museum as we celebrate our 10th Anniversary with a special exhibition honoring the artists and collectors who have helped shape our first decade. Featuring the work of 32 quilt artists and two quilt collectors who have exhibited with us over the past ten years, this commemorative exhibit showcases an inspiring collection of traditional, contemporary, and art quilts that reflect the incredible diversity of American quiltmaking.
Visitors will also enjoy a special tribute to Winterset quilter Velma VanScoy, whose beautifully hand-quilted work is displayed in our mezzanine in honor of her lasting legacy.
Celebrate ten years of quilts, creativity, and community—we look forward to welcoming you!

With over 25% of our Capital Campaign goal already raised, we’re looking at eliminating our mortgage, reducing pandemic-era debt and finishing our upper level to expand classes, workshops, and community programming. The best is yet to come.
