The Atlanta Quilt Festival is currently underway, featuring over 150 quilts that explore African American history and culture. The festival includes a non-juried exhibit called Music Moves Movements, which showcases 50 original quilts that examine the role of music in political movements and social change. The quilts on display cover a range of themes, including music, Black history, social justice, and empowerment.

Quilters from Atlanta and across the US have contributed to the festival, which is being held at the Southwest Arts Center. The festival, which opened on July 31, will continue through September 5. Further details about the event can be found through the SaportaReport.
