Aotearoa Quilters invites participants in the 2020 Aotearoa Quilters 100 Days Project to submit an entry for the AQ 100 Days exhibition. The exhibition will be shown during The Great New Zealand Quilt Show, to be held at the Energy Events Centre, Rotorua, 14 -16 May 2021.
Overview
We have arranged vertical hanging space and horizontal table space to display work that was done during the project. Therefore we can accept 3D work, sketchbooks, etc. as well as work that hangs on a wall.
Please read conditions of entry carefully before submitting an entry.
If you wish to submit 2 works or 2 types of work (wall mounted or 3D), please complete 2 entries.
