San Jose Museum Of Quilts & Textiles

The San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles is the nexus for fiber artists, art lovers, collectors, quilters, and crafters who share a passion for fiber art and a deep commitment to its preservation and evolution. Its mission is to promote and celebrate the art, creators, craft, and history of quilts and textiles. The Museum’s collection consists of some 850 quilts, garments, and ethnic textiles, and a research library of more than 500 books on the history and making of quilts and other textiles. The first in the United States to focus on textiles as an art form, it remains one of few exhibiting venues in the country for artists and collectors of fiber art.
