Freshly painted barn quilts    Be part of the Carroll County Barn Quilt Trail    Coming this Fall   The Arts Council is partnering with the Carroll County Recreation & Parks, the Farm Museum and Everybody's Quilt Guild to develop a "Barn Quilt" trail like the one in Garrett County. We're looking for barn owners who would like to have an 8' painted quilt square hung on their barn. We hope to install 12 quilt panels this fall. Our barn selection criteria will include geographic diversity, good visibility from a main road, and the ability for 1-2 cars to pull over to take pictures. If your barn, or one you know of, fits this description, contact Jeff Degitz at ccrec@ccg.carr.org, for an application. This will be a wonderful celebration of our community's agricultural heritage and artistic traditions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cast your vote for your favorite piece 11th Annual Members Show  August 16 - October 5 Opening Reception: Friday, Aug 16, 5 - 7 pm Nearly 150 entries are expected for this exhibition that has become an annual tradition showcasing the artistic talents of the organization's members.
