Timestamps – a solo exhibit of Ricky Tims

Main Gallery

Ricky Tims has enjoyed a rich and exciting career in quilting, winning numerous awards at national and international exhibitions. Ricky has shared his skill through patterns and teaching his methods, but has been fortunate to keep a large collection of his creations and the time has come to display this amazing journey of creativity in a single exhibit. Many of these quilts will be available to purchase – so admirers and collectors can add to their personal collections pieces created by this internationally influential quilt artist. Take a journey through Ricky’s creative quilting life in this exhibit.

Ricky will do a Sunday at the Museum lecture on Sunday, July 27, 2025 at 2-4PM.

 

Voices of Wildlife - a solo exhibit by Sue Sherman
Northeast Gallery

Sue Sherman is a fibre artist living in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada (close to Toronto). Building upon a lifelong passion for all the fibre arts, and following a career in engineering, Sue emerged as a full-time fibre artist in 2017. As an avid traveler and nature photographer, Sue works with her own photos to create lifelike imagery in quilted textile art.

Sue’s work is clearly topical, fun and amazing to see in person. Using a method of applying thickened dyes to white cotton using paintbrushes, then using thread and stitching in a thread painting technique- Sue creates texture and detail that transform white fabric into lifelike animal characters who have something to say about their environment and the world. One of the key pieces in the exhibition is Dear Humans . . . Many of the comments received about this quilt have been about how much people enjoyed the humor of it, and how that made them perhaps a little more receptive to the message the animals are delivering.

Her quilts have won awards at national and international quilt events including the American Quilters Association, the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, and the International Quilt Festival in Houston where Sue won the Superior Threads Master Award for Thread Artistry in 2022. Sue has also won multiple awards at the Canadian National Juried Show, including Best of Show.

Sue will be teaching a hands-on class on July 26 teaching the techniques she uses.
