Water Mill Museum 30th Anniversary Quilt Raffle Benefit Fundraiser 2016 at Water Mill Museum in Water Mill, Suffolk County, Hamptons, Long Island, New York.
American quilts of any size, design or age are welcome at the Museum Quilt show for display or for sale. This year's Raffle Quilt is a queen-size quilt. It will be on display at the Museum from May 26th until the drawing for the lucky winner on October 8th at our annual Bowls of Plenty benefit.
Those interested can also view our first raffle quilt, which was created by Museum members in 1976 to commemorate America's bicentennial. Years after it was raffled off the quilt was sold back to the Museum and now hangs on the third floor as part of our permanent collection.
Raffle tickets can be purchased at the Museum starting on May 26th. The money raised through the raffle is an important source of income for the Museum.
The winning ticket holder need not be present at the drawing - he or she will be contacted soon after the drawing and arrangements will be made for delivery.
The Water Mill Museum
The mission of the Water Mill Museum is to preserve its historic water-powered grist mill, the other buildings at its site, its museum collection and inform the public about the history of the mill, the hamlet of Water Mill and the hamlet's cultural and natural heritage.
The museum's collection will contain items that best depict the many past uses of the water mill building, the agricultural base of the hamlet's first 300 years and the commercial, cultural and social development of the hamlet of Water Mill from 1644 to the present. |
