Virtual lecture with author Bobbie Malone celebrating the publication of "Striding Lines: The Unique Story Quilts of Rumi O'Brien."
About the Book:
Bobbie Malone reaches beyond the quilts to tell O’Brien’s own story, from her initial foray into the quilting world to her developed dedication to the craft. Contributions from leaders in the art, textile, and quilting community, including Melanie Herzog and Marin Hanson, contextualize O’Brien’s work in the greater community of quiltmakers and artists. This book celebrates the ingenuity of O’Brien’s enchanting story quilts, which take inspiration from her Japanese heritage and Midwest home.

How do I ZOOM?
Welcome to our Zoom video conferencing! Thank you for coming along as we navigate our new virtual learning. We will be making online lectures and classes available via Zoom while the museum is closed to the public.
Easy to use and reliable, Zoom is available to download for free on your PC/Mac or by using a dedicated app for iOS and Android. Before you join us, you will need to sign up for Zoom using a free Basic Plan.
When you join one of our programs (referred to as a meeting in Zoom), we will do a brief greeting, and then ask you to mute your microphones for optimal sound quality. With the Zoom meeting active, as you hover your mouse over the bottom of the page, you will click the icon of a microphone. We will have moderators standing by to assist you with this process.
We encourage you to ask questions at any time, by using the Chat feature or by simply raising your hand via the hand signal and turning your microphone back on.
Once you have downloaded the program, Zoom allows you to test your Internet connection by joining a test meeting.
