From nine months of planning, to a joyous opening gala, to the enthusiasm of hundreds who saw the show, the Sacred Threads Art Quilts Exhibition marked a growth spurt for the Arts and Spirituality Ministry at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church Hayesville.

In only a few days, Good Shepherd Episcopal Church Hayesville will welcome hundreds of visitors to its Sacred Threads Art Quilts Exhibition. Starting May 10, those who appreciate the creation of a beautiful quilt or those who appreciate the power of a story that one human shares with another can view 40 pieces of art that comprise the 2016 traveling exhibit of Sacred Threads.

Good Shepherd Episcopal Church Hayesville will present a series of seminars focusing on end-of-life planning beginning Saturday, May 7, at 11:00 a.m. and continuing for the following three Saturdays. All are welcome and encouraged to join the conversation in the undercroft of the church.

When the Sacred Threads art quilts exhibition opens at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church Hayesville, NC, on May 10, viewers will first be struck by the beauty of the quilts, then by the intricacy of their construction, and then by the stories that inspired them. The traveling exhibition of 40 quilts is open to the public from May 10-22. Everyone is welcome for a rare and unique experience.
