Palouse People talk | at the Pullman Depot.
A Quilter’s Legacy Continues
10am – Saturday, April 26, in the Main Waiting Room at the Depot (on the Kamiaken Street end of the building).
Pullman’s mayor, Francis Benjamin, will open the vintage quilt show, speaking on his mother’s remarkable enthusiasm for quilting. Garnet Benjamin did not start quilting until she was 50; but in the following 35 years, she completed over 220 quilts and over 380 quilted wall hangings and minis. A number of her works will be part of this year’s quilt show.
The quilt show itself will begin afterward. Admission to Palouse People talk is free. Tickets to attend the Quilt Show are $3.00 for Whitman County Historical Society members and $5.00 for non-members. Lenders will be admitted to the quilt show at no cost. Mayor Benjamin’s talk is free to the public.
