Image of a quilt depicting a protest scene. The arms, faces, and raised fists of the African American male figures are made of grey, black and blue fabrics. Red fabric makes one man's shirt., another man wears a violet shirt and yellow pants, and there is a flash of an orange bullhorn held by the man in front. There are protest signs that read, "Stronger Together", "Say Her Name", "TEACH PEACE", and "RESIST FASCISM." A repeated peacock patterned cloth in the background looks like vigil candles.
Aida Ayers, Mentor Artist

A drawing of two people by a riverside surrounded by trees. One figure, a woman wearing a blue shirt and black pants with long hair flowing in the breeze holds a Native American basket by the handles with both hands while the other, a young man dressed in a black T-shirt and black pants and a black cap over short-cropped hair, holds two long sticks. With these sticks, he pulls a stone from the fire that is between them and leans forward to place it in the basket.

A colorful tile looks like a carnation of many colors - blue, orange, green, and mauve. another shows and eye with a heart; another a sun. There is an image of 48 tiles in a grid with a hand holding a tile third row from bottom, forth column from left. this tile has a face on it with curly hair, mouth open as if singing, eyes closed. The top two images are wide shots, One of at least 100 colorful tiles and the other a wider view of at least 150 tiles arranges in an abstract shape on a gallery wall.

A quilted image of entrepreneur Pinky Cole created by Shonna McDaniels. Pinky Cole looks at the view with calm confidence; clothed in brightly colored elegantly draped fabric against a chartreuse background. Her right arm rests on a bench and her left arm is at her side as she turns toward the viewer. The color of her vivid blue-green, short-cut hair is mirrored in her large earrings. There is a halo of gold around her head.
