Gee's Bend Quilting Experience LA

In the spirit of their foremothers, Mary Ann Pettway and China Pettway lead a quilting experience with storytelling, song, and a practice passed through generations in Gee’s Bend, immersing you in a tradition shaped by endurance, community, and a bend in the Alabama River.

The visit includes a public lecture led by Mary Ann Pettway and China Pettway.

They share personal history, family stories, and the context behind the quilts and traditions of Gee’s Bend.
