Quilt National
The Quilt National is a juried biennial exhibition of contemporary quilt art, first held in 1979. The primary exhibition is held at the Dairy Barn Art Center in Athens, Ohio in odd-numbered years. The exhibition includes between 80-90 quilts, and after the conclusion of the Quilt National selections of the exhibits also tour the country.〔〔 It is both the largest and one of the most prestigious shows of its kind.
==History and format==
The Quilt National was first held in 1979, and was the first major exhibition of quilt art in the United States, and has been held biennially ever since.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://dairybarn.org/quilt-national/faq/#what )〕 Additionally, it was also the first major event held in the Dairy Barn Arts Center space, which at the time, was still largely an unaltered dairy barn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://dairybarn.org/quilt-national/history/qn-79/ )〕 Founder Nancy Crow, along with Françoise Barnes and Virginia Randles organized the event, accepting applications from 96 artists, totaling 360 pieces. A final exhibition of 56 quilts, by 43 artists was selected for the exhibition.〔
Since its inaugural event, the Quilt National has been held every other year at the Dairy Barn, attracting quilt artists from around the world. Beginning in 1983, a selection of the quilts displayed at the Quilt National have gone on tour around the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://dairybarn.org/quilt-national/tour/ )〕 Approximately 75 of the around 90 quilts on display at the Quilt National are chosen for the tour, and are divided into three tour groups, each of which travels to different venues over the course of the two-year gap between Quilt National Exhibitions.〔〔
