A patchwork of people and place
Friday 27th, Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th November | 11am - 3pm
Come and see the Bath Patchwork Project ’26 at the American Museum & Gardens, on display for three days only, from Friday 27 to Sunday 29 November 2026. Created in partnership with Bath Artists’ Studios and curated by textile artist Emma Reichenbach, this three-metre-square quilt brings together embroidered squares made by people of all ages and backgrounds from across Bath.
Inspired by the Museum’s historic textile collection, the patchwork celebrates community, creativity and the spirit of Thanksgiving. Each square is a personal contribution, with participants’ hopes, memories and reflections incorporated into the reverse of the finished quilt. Discover this textile time capsule as part of your visit. Included with normal day admission.
