Open House is November 8th, 2025 (12:00 PM - 4:00 PM)
 
This exhibition brings together woven belongings, regalia, beadwork, and portraits that embody survival, beauty, and defiance. Each belonging holds the presence of ancestors and the strength of community, created for family and friends as living expressions of kinship. These are not ornaments but continuations—belongings that dance, regalia that prays, weavings that stand against forgetting. “What Remains, What Resists” affirms that Indigenous culture does not fade; it endures. The old ones chose this work to be carried forward, giving power not for ego, but for responsibility. Here, the resilience of tradition lives on—unbroken, unyielding, and alive.

"Quilts by the Sea" | Bed Turning with Latimer Quilt & Textile Center

Please enjoy this bed turning from the annual quilt show by Oregon Coastal Quilters Guild. Latimer Quilt & Textile Center was honored to come present a bed turning for the 2025 quilt show, "Quilts by the Sea", in Newport, OR.

Carol Weber, Linda Machuta & La Rayne Woodward did an amazing job presenting these quilts and we are so joyed to share this video with the public.

A big thank you to, Jean Amundson and Linda Kirk Fox (videography) for filming and getting us a copy to show everyone what we do.
