American As Apple Pie and Baseball

Celebrate our great country with antique quilts from the Christ Collection during Paducah Rotary's 24th Annual Antique Quilt Show, to be held April 24 through April 28 at the Cherry Civic Center. The antique quilts feature eagles, stars and bars from 1830 to 1940 and are American as apple pie and baseball.

As an official sanctioned event of the AQS Quilt Show, the Rotary Quilt Show offers up not only antique quilts on display, but a merchant mall of vendors specializing in various quilting necessities.

Proceeds from the Rotary Quilt Show benefit the Rotary Education Assistance Program (REAP), which provides educational scholarships to Paducah/McCracken County students who otherwise would be unable to attend college.

$5 admits one to the Rotary Show all week. For tix, call the Rotary Office, 270.442.3418, or purchase at the door.

Don't be tied up in stitches... Follow us on FB and Twitter for all details leading up to the show!
