UPCOMING EVENT
India International Quilt Festival
23 - 25 January, 2021
Online
It was a difficult decision for us to move India International Quilt Festival online and we share the frustration due to the pandemic that none of us imagined a few months back.
While the event is a great opportunity for all us artists, associations, exhibitors, collectors and fans from all over the world, as well as volunteers and staff to meet and exchange their passion and culture, we wanted to ensure the health and safety of all concerned by choosing to have this as an online event.
We would like to express our gratitude for all the support we have received till now and we look forward to visitors, exhibitors, and partners to be part of IIQF 2021 online event.
