Jan Lindstrom’s HOW GRAMMIE SEES IT is a charming, multi-generational exhibition of textile artworks.

“In the summer of 2023 I asked each of my nine grandchildren to create a piece of art that would inspire me to make a quilted interpretation.” – Jan Lindstrom

Girls and boys ages 8 through 18 created art for their Grammie.  Employing a variety of media and techniques Lindstrom has reimagined these endearing artworks.  This exhibition is an artistic  time capsule, and a full circle gift from grandchild to Grammie – Grammie to grandchild.
