Quilt Exhibit

Drawing from its own holdings as well as loaned articles from the Harrison County community, the Harrison County Historical Museum has mounted a major exhibit called, "A Stitch In Time." It focuses on historic as well as modern needlework; from the treasured baby blanket lent by Justice Ben Z. Grant to prize winning modern quilts on loan from the Piecemakers Quilt Guild.
