American quilts carry a range of meanings involving degrees of handwork and headwork. “Handwork” affords space for embodying and reimagining craft traditions in service of contemporary concerns. “Headwork” honors memory and tradition, as well as past and future material histories. Katie Wood Kirchhoff, the Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen Curator of American Decorative Arts, leads a conversation ranging from African American quiltmaker Harriet Powers and the U.S. Postal Service to the AIDS Memorial Quilt to Burlington’s own Lilian Baker Carlisle, highlighting projects that have employed this medium to commemorate and concretize a diverse range of American histories, from the 19th century to the present day. Registration recommended. Free for Members or with Museum admission.

Gates open at 5:30 pm for picnickingConcert begins at 7:30 pm To celebrate the United States’ 250th birthday, the Vermont Symphony Orchestra hits the road with Summer Festival Tour: America 250, bringing music to communities across the Green Mountain State. There’s nothing quite like a balmy July evening in the Vermont outdoors, especially when the state’s orchestra performs beloved favorites like Morton Gould’s American Salute (based on “When Johnny Comes Marching Home”), Aaron Copland’s Hoe-Down from Rodeo, a lively selection of music by John Williams and John Philip Sousa, and more. Music Director Andrew Crust invites you to bring a picnic blanket and relax under sunny skies to enjoy this cherished annual tradition. Each location features the VSO’s Musical Petting Zoo before the performance, where audiences can explore a variety of orchestral instruments. This 4th of July concert concludes with a fireworks display!
