The Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts is the only museum devoted to the creation, education and preservation of time-honored fiber arts in Wisconsin. In 2011, we restored our 1850's barn for use as an exhibition gallery, classrooms, collections storage and general purpose. Our property includes a farmhouse, summer kitchen, blacksmithery, lambing shed and chicken coop dating from their late 1800's use as a working German farm. Our Mission The Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts, located just east of historic downtown Cedarburg, Wisconsin, is dedicated to educating the public about the artistic, cultural, historic and social importance of quilts and fiber arts. We also seek to increase the awareness of historic structure preservation. Our repurposed 1850s farmstead is used to: -Foster and inspire creativity by hosting exhibits of artists from traditional to contemporary techniques; -Educate children and adults, from beginners to experienced fiber artists, in the time-honored crafts; -Preserve quilts and other fiber arts items, maintaining our own collection and encouraging others to document their treasures. -Maintain a library for researchers interested in exploring how quilts and other fiber arts have changed over time.
