New England Quilt Museum treats quilting as both an art form and a record of social and domestic history.

New England Quilt Museum

Changing exhibitions bring different techniques, makers, and traditions into its downtown Lowell galleries. The museum offers a focused cultural visit that complements the city's wider story of textiles and industry.

Check the current exhibition and visitor information before arriving. Displays rotate, so a particular historic quilt should not be assumed to be on view. Workshops, talks, and group visits can have separate booking requirements. Use the museum's current entrance and accessibility guidance when planning your visit.
