A quilt is not simply a blanket; it is a tapestry of history, a repository of memory, and a living record of human experience. Each square of fabric, each deliberate stitch, holds a story: of hopes and fears, joys and sorrows. Much like these storied quilts, the American experience is a complex tapestry pieced from countless individual stories, cultural backgrounds, and personal legacies. 

Join the San Marcos Art League Friday, February 6th from 6-8pm at the San Marcos Art Center for the Opening Reception for American Patchwork, a new art exhibition celebrating the multifaceted cultural tapestry of the nation. Opening February 4th, 2026 at the San Marcos Art Center, 117 N. Guadalupe, #101,  the exhibition brings together a diverse array of artists whose work reflects the richness of American identity through their unique histories and backgrounds.

The exhibition will be open for viewing Wednesday, February 4th through Friday, February 27th.
