Founder's Day
Rita Hupy, founder of the La Conner Quilt & Textile Museum, passed away on August 7, 2014. In honor of Rita, the Museum will be open on Sunday, November 30 free to the public. She, along with her husband Art, were key to founding what has become a significant art presence in La Conner through their work with both the Quilt & Textile Museum and the Museum of Northwest Art. Rita?s commitment to the restoration of the Gaches Mansion and later, her decision to base a Quilt Museum here, has had ? and will continue to have ? a lasting impact on our community. We invite you to visit the Quilt & Textile Museum on November 30th to share your memories of Rita with us, pay tribute to this remarkable woman, and experience her unique legacy.
