Heart Mountain Exhibit has moved...




This is the Heart Mountain exhibit!!  22 Quilts, 17 artists. We moved this exhibit from the HM exhibit hall to the HM theatre.   All have been donated to the Heart Mountain Foundation.  It will one day be a traveling exhibit with hopes of educating the public on the illegal imprisonment of over 100,0000 Japanese Americans during WW2.
The Textile Artists of the Greater Yellowstone are the artists of these beautiful quilts.  After visiting the Heart Mountain Center many times we put those impressions into these quilts.  They are moving, they bring tears to many of the visitors.  And… it will soon be a book so you can bring all these quilts home.
