Quilt Alaska

Quilt Alaska 2026

 

The biennial show, organized by Cabin Fever Quilters Guild and Fairbanks Arts Association, is open to CFQG members and residents of Interior Alaska, Doyon Region. Held at Bear Gallery in Pioneer Park, it features quilts of any size and wearable art garments. Each person may submit either one entry, or both a garment and a quilt. If you are unsure whether your item will qualify for the show, please ask.

​

For this exhibit, a “QUILT” consists of three layers—a designed top, center batting, and back—held together by stitched patterns or designs. This description pertains to both quilts and wearable art.

We support all quilting styles: traditional, contemporary, and modern.

​

Important Requirements for All Entries:

​

• All quilts must have Velcro (hook side) securely attached to the top for hanging. Very large quilts must also have Velcro on the bottom corners.

• All quilts and garments must remain on display for the entire duration of the show—early pickup is not permitted.

Note: You can list your work for sale; however, FAA will retain a 35% commission.
