CGDCM is thrilled to host an extraordinary quilted art exhibition, GORGE LIFE, from the local
fiber art group Beyond the Block: Art Quilters of the Gorge. This temporary exhibit is a collection
of quilted artwork revealing personal experiences, impressions, memories, and impactful
moments of sixteen artists who call the Gorge home. Beyond the Block: Art Quilters of the
Gorge has been creating and exhibiting artwork from fabric and thread for more than a
decade, employing a myriad of techniques and artistic styles to bring their inspiring images to
life. From landscapes and wildlife to abstract symbolism and interpretations, their work
expresses unique glimpses of life in the Gorge.
