New England Quilt Museum, Textile museum in Lowell, United States.
The New England Quilt Museum exhibits historical and contemporary quilts across multiple galleries in a former savings bank building at 18 Shattuck Street.
Founded in 1987 as the second-oldest quilt museum in the United States, the institution relocated to its current location in 1994 following a flood.
The museum maintains a collection emphasizing 19th-century New England quilts while incorporating both traditional and contemporary fiber arts through exhibitions and classes.
The museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM, offering workshops, lectures, and a specialized store with quilting supplies.
MassQuilts, a documentation project based at the museum, has recorded details of over 8,000 quilts since its establishment in 1994.
