(Chelsea Update would like to thank Emily Meloche for the information in this story.)
The C.A.A.D.Y. quilters are back with their annual January/February display in Silver Maples of Chelsea Gallery 100.
C.A.A.D.Y. began over 20 years ago, with members from Chelsea, Ann Arbor, Dexter, and Ypsilanti (C.A.A.D.Y.) The group meets at the Chelsea Senior Center every Tuesday afternoon.
The quilts on display are representative of the quilts the C.A.A.D.Y. Corner Quilters group donates to local organizations. The majority of the quilts are given to patients at the University of Michigan’s Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. Chelsea’s Faith in Action and St. Louis Center also receive quilts for their annual fundraising activities.
In this exhibit, there are no identification tags to indicate who made a quilt, as each is a collaborative effort.
Gallery 100 is an art gallery, open to the public, at Silver Maples of Chelsea.
New exhibits are put up every two months. The gallery can be accessed M-F 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m., Sat. and Sun. 10 a.m.- 5 p.m.
