America250 Mississippi – Fabric of Our Future: Mississippi’s Children Celebrate America250

Join Lynn Meadows Discovery Center for a special America250 community celebration featuring the unveiling of a one-of-a-kind quilt created by children from across the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Through their artwork, young participants have shared their hopes and dreams for the future of Mississippi and America.

The evening will feature the official community quilt unveiling, the MAC America250 Public Art Exhibit, a WINGS Performing Arts performance, family-friendly activities, and recognition of the local quilters and community partners who helped bring these collaborative projects to life.
