Barn Quilt Exhibition
2025-02-22 10:00 - 16:00, 2025-02-23 10:00 - 16:00 (America/New_York) | Billings Farm and Museum, 69 Old River Rd, Woodstock, VT, 05091, United States
Billings Farm & Museum is bringing the rural artistry of barn quilts to our scenic site from April 4 – December 1. Barn quilting recreates the concept of quilt squares on durable mediums such as plywood. These squares, starting at 4 feet by 4 feet and up, feature striking colors and simple geometric designs.
Collaborating with Vermont artists as well as artisans from the Chelsea Barn Quilt Project and Barn Quilts of Northern Vermont who have been working to highlight barn quilting in Vermont, each space will host a uniquely crafted piece inspired by nature, math, agriculture, and the history of the Billings Farm site. Guests can wander through the picturesque farm and take in the boldly painted patterns that will adorn historic barns and buildings.
This exhibition is included with admission.

Guided by filmmaker Margreth Olin’s 85-year old father, we journey through Norway’s breathtaking Oldendalen in Nordfjord over the course of a year. This is where he grew up, and where generations before him have lived in balance with nature. Majestic images of wild mountains, calving glaciers, and bustling wildlife are filmed side-by-side with stories about the generations who trod the trails, the relationship we have with nature, and what is valuable in life. The music is composed of unique sound recordings – nature’s own melodies, translated and performed by the London Contemporary Orchestra.
Norway’s official selection for the Academy Awards, Songs of Earth is a majestic symphony for the big screen. Executive produced by Liv Ullmann and Wim Wenders.
